Abstract

Restrictive ventricular filling pattern derived from Doppler echocardiography after anterior wall AMI may serve as an indicator of diastolic dysfunction due to initial myocardial stiffness and complications such as extension of the infarction, Dressier syndrome, septal rupture, or myocardial failure. Later changes, such as prolongation of deceleration time, may indicate remodeling process, healing of the complications of AMI, or improved revascularization.
