Core Tip	Global myocardial strain is an objective measure of cardiac function. It can be assessed using post-processing analysis on different imaging modalities such as speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) - tagging and feature tracking. We performed a systematic review that showed global longitudinal strain (GLS) measured acutely by STE following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) predicted clinical outcomes and adverse left ventricular remodelling, a surrogate marker of poor prognosis. No relevant studies were found for CMR techniques. GLS may refine risk stratification in the STEMI population but further work is needed to support this.
