Clinical Validity of Longitudinal Pre-Ejectional Myocardial Velocity for Identifying the Transmural Extent of Viable Myocardium Early After Reperfusion of an Infarct-Related Coronary Artery

Abstract: Background Positive longitudinal pre-ejectional velocity (+PEVL) was recently reported to be a reliable index of myocardial recovery early after successful revascularization in myocardial infarction (MI); that is, it recognizes the transmural extent of viable myocardium. The applicability of PEVL in the real-world clinical setting for identifying the transmural extent of viable myocardium in reperfused recent MI was assessed. Methods and ResultsUsing tissue Doppler imaging, the resting basal and mid myocardial… Show more
