Myocardial recovery after percutaneous coronary intervention in coronary artery disease patients with impaired systolic function- predictive utility of global longitudinal strain.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Coronary revascularization is associated with better outcomes in coronary artery disease patients. We aim to investigate the prevalence, and factors associated with left ventricular (LV) improvement following successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of patients with impaired systolic function with specific reference to the value of baseline GLS.

Methods

This retrospective study reviewed the records of coronary artery disease patients with impaired systolic function who were admitted and treated with PCI.

Result

Out of 420 consecutive acute coronary syndrome patients with an impaired systolic function who were admitted and treated with PCI during the period from January 2021 to December 2021, 147 patients (35%) showed no improvement in the Left ven
