description
Doppler echocardiographic studies of left ventricular diastolic function in patients with thalassaemia major have shown conflicting findings. This study was undertaken to compare Doppler echocardiographic parameters of diastolic function among a group of patients with thalassaemia major, a group with thalassaemia intermedia and a group of normal individuals.
