Relation of myocardial deformation to left ventricular geometry in the patients with maintenance hemodialysis uremia and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction
|
Abstract:
Objective To assess left ventricular myocardial deformation and their relation to left ventricular geometry in the patients of maintenance hemodialysis uremia with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Methods The study population consisted of 80 uremia patients with preserved LVEF on a maintenance hemodialysis program,who took conventional echocardiography for systolic function and left ventricular geometry. Left ventricular geometry was assessed from left ventricular mass/height and relativ...
