Abstract
Background: Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS), assessed using 2-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography, is a sensitive marker of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction. In ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), GLS has been shown to predict adverse LV remodeling. However, its added predictive value over other echocardiographic variables remains uncertain.
