Right Ventricular Systolic Strain Is Altered in Children with Sickle Cell Disease

Background Several adult studies have shown that sickle cell disease is associated with cardiac abnormalities and premature death. The aim of this study was to use speckle-tracking strain, a relatively load independent parameter, to evaluate systolic left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV)...
