The assessment of myocardial work (MW) using non-invasive pressure-strain loop analysis
is a novel echocardiographic method that provides a more precise assessment of the
cardiac performance, considering the left ventricular loading condition. By integrating
various MW components such as index, efficiency, constructive and wasted work an
extensive analysis of left ventricular mechanics and energetics can be achieved. This
approach offers a more comprehensive assessment of global cardiac function and …
