Abstract
Assessment of Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony in Hypertensive Patients with Normal Systolic Function by Tissue Synchronization Imaging
Left ventricular systolic and diastolic dyssynchrony are not uncommon in patients with hypertension. Dyssynchrony is associated with increasing incidence of heart failure, cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The study aims to assess LV dyssynchrony in hypertensive patients with nor Normal Systolic Function by Tissue Synchronization imaging.
