BACKGROUND Left ventricular (LV) systolic function may be overestimated in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) when using LV ejection fraction (EF). LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) is a less load-dependent measure of LV function. However, the prognostic value of LV GLS in secondary MR has not been evaluated. OBJECTIVES This study sought to demonstrate the prognostic value of LV GLS over LVEF in patients with secondary MR. METHODS A total of 650 patients (mean 66 ± 11 years of age, 68% men) with significant
