Study of Left Ventricular Function in Diabetic Patients with Normal Ejection Fraction: Evaluation by Tissue Doppler and Speckle Tracking Echocardiography

Author(s):

Mohamed Yahia and Tamer Ghazy

Background: The effect of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) on the left ventricular (LV) diastolic function is still controversial. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effect of type 2 DM on the LV diastolic function according to the latest recommendations of the American Society of Echocardiography, and on LV systolic function assessed by speckle tracking echocardiography among asymptomatic normotensive patients with preserved LV ejection fraction (EF).

 Methods: LV diastolic function was assessed by pulsed Doppler and tissue Doppler echocardiography. LV systolic function was assessed by speckle tracking echocardiography in 40 patients with type 2 DM and LVEF >50%. The results were compared with 20 healthy control subject... view moreĀ»
