title: Diagnosis and treatment of asymptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction after myocardial infarction.
abstract: The increased survival after acute myocardial infarction induced an increase in heart failure with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Early detection and treatment of asymptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction give the chance to improve outcomes and to reduce costs due to the management of patients with overt heart failure.
