Özet

The Tei index is an echocardiographic index of combined systolic and diastolic function, calculated as isovolumetric relaxation time plus isovolumetric contraction time divided by ejection time. The aim of this study was to define the correlation of the Tei index with left ventricular dilatation and mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
