Global longitudinal strain is a more reproducible measure of left ventricular function than ejection fraction regardless of echocardiographic training

BACKGROUND: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is an established method for evaluation of left ventricular (LV) systolic function. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) by speckle tracking echocardiography seems to be an important additive method for evaluation of LV function with improved reprodu...
