The Impact of Conventional Hemodialysis and Renal Transplantation on the Global Longitudinal Strain of the Left Ventricle
The Impact of Conventional Hemodialysis and Renal Transplantation on the Global Longitudinal Strain of the Left Ventricle
The objective of this study is to evaluate a group of patients with chronic kidney disease in stages 3-5 by conventional 2D echocardiography, tissue Doppler techniques and speckle tracking - LV GLS and determine the correlation of ultrasound parameters with mortality. Additionally, fibrosis-related biomarkers will be studied in this population.
