Abstract
Tissue Doppler imaging and GLS provide novel insights and further characterization of myocardial performance immediately after patent ductus arteriosus ligation. A reduction in tissue Doppler-derived LV systolic velocity may further help in monitoring cardiac performance after patent ductus arteriosus ligation and for monitoring the effects of treatment.
