  1. The table shows the response in strain parameters to 10 and 20 μg · kg-1· min-1 of dobutamine on a segmental basis derived from mid-ventricular short-axis view containing both papillary muscles. Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Paired t-test was used to determine the significance of change from one level of dobutamine to the next one (p < 0.05). Err SAX = left ventricular short-axis radial strain; Ecc SAX = left ventricular short-axis circumferential strain
