Integrated wall stress: a new methodological approach to assess ventricular workload and myocardial contractile reserve

BACKGROUND: Wall stress is a useful concept to understand the progression of ventricular remodeling. We measured cumulative LV wall stress throughout the cardiac cycle over unit time and tested whether this “integrated wall stress (IWS)” would provide a reliable marker of total ventricular workload....
