Speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with septic shock: a case control study (SPECKSS) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is a well-recognized condition and confers worse outcomes in septic patients. Echocardiographic assessment by conventional parameters such as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is often affected by
