Clinical utility of left ventricular strain, wall stress and serum brain natriuretic peptide levels in chronic hemodialysis patients

BACKGROUND: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) reliably assesses LV systolic function. The precise relation between LV wall stress and serum Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentrations in hemodialysis (HD) patients needs to be clarified. BNP levels are raised in patients with...
