Abstract
AMI has a significant impact on regional myocardial contractility and LV systolic (but not diastolic) synchronicity early in the course even in the absence of QRS widening or bundle branch block. The degree of LV systolic asynchrony is greater with anterior than inferior AMI and mainly determined by infarct size.
