Left Atrial Volume Index (LAVI) as a Predictor of Outcome for First Time ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), Compared to Other Conventional Echocardiographic Parameters of Left Ventricular (LV) Function
Abstract:Background: Acute Heart Failure (AHF) complicates acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) as a result of complex interaction of structural, hemodynamic, neurohormonal, and genetic maladaptations. This study aims to analyse the role of Left Atrial Volume Index (LAVI) compared to other conventional parameters of systolic and diastolic Left Ventricular function (LV) in patients with first time ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), in predicting in-Hospital Heart failure (HF), in-hospital mortality and dev… Show more
