Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the correlation of levels of serum markers of myocardial injury with parameters of myocardial function assessed by 2D-speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) Material and methods. The study group comprised 96 patients (69 male, mean age 58 ± 10 years) with first STEMI treated with successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Levels of serum markers of myocardial injury (troponin T and CKMB mass) were assessed on admission and then monitored during the hospitalization. 7-12 days after STEMI, all patients underwent resting 2D echocardiography with subsequent offline analysis using 2D speckle tracking algorithm. Measurements of left ventricular deformation included peak systolic longitudinal and transverse strain (SLS and STS) – maximal value before aortic valve closure, peak longitudinal and transverse strain (PLS and PTS) – including possible postsystolic contraction, systolic longitudinal and transverse strain rate (SLSR and STSR) at baseline. Results On admission median values (I – III quartile) of CKMB mass and troponin T were 20,0 ng/ml (6,3 – 59,0; range 1,9 – 475,3) and
