Abstract

Objective: To analyze the role of left atrial volume compared to other conventional parameters of systolic and diastolic left ventricular function in patients with first STEMI in predicting early congestive heart failure. Methods: A total of 61 patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction were studied, a detailed history, general examination, routine investigations were performed and ECHO was performed within 72 hrs and EF,DT, E/A,LVEDVI,LVESVI and LAVI were estimated, patients were then divided according to Killip class> II and II and analyzed. Results: Of 61 patients25
