Assessment of left ventricular long axis contraction in patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation after acute myocardial infarction
Introduction: The development of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) after myocardial infarction (MI) may impose hemodynamic load during a period of active left ventricular remodeling and promote heart failure (HF). The aim of our study was to evaluate left ventricular (LV) long axis contraction ass...
