Determinants and Prognostic Impact of Heart Failure and Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Acute Coronary Syndrome Settings
2018, Revista Espanola de CardiologiaInfluence of left ventricular hypertrophy on infarct size and left ventricular ejection fraction in ST-elevation myocardial infarction
2012, European Journal of RadiologyCitation Excerpt :LVEF is a widely accessible and basic marker of LV dysfunction following STEMI used to guide future treatment [1,2]. Impaired LV systolic function is related to poorer prognosis mainly due to increased risk of sudden cardiac death caused by severe ventricular arrhythmias or progression to end-stage heart failure as a consequence of dilation of the left ventricle [11]. However, LVEF obtained in the first days following STEMI is not an optimal marker of infarct size.
