Two- Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography After Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Conditions
Myocardial Infarction
Interventions
Procedure: 2D speckle tracking echocardiography
Registration Number
NCT04228510
Lead Sponsor
Assiut University
Brief Summary

ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In spite of decrease in acute and long-term mortality following STEMI in parallel with more use of reperfusion therapy, such as primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI), modern antithrombotic therapy, and secondary prevention, mortality remains considerable. Reduced EF is a well-known predictor of increased short and long term major adverse cardiovascular events MACE :( heart failure, stroke and death)
