Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain as a Predictor for Left Ventricular Reverse Remodeling in Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Abstract

We demonstrated that LV GLS was an independent predictor for LVRR and the optimal cut-off point of LV GLS for LVRR was -10% in DCM patients with sinus rhythm. There was a significant correlation between baseline LV GLS and follow-up LVEF.
