Echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricular diastolic and systolic function in Saudi patients with sickle cell disease
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited haemoglobin disorder, associated with recurrent vaso-occlusive and haemolytic crises and chronic tissue ischemia which may adversely affect any organ system. Our objectives were to evaluate the left ventricular (LV) systoli...
