Formatted Abstract/Summary Objective:
To investigate whether the incremental value of myocardial deformation during dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) for the prediction of mortality is independent of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and myocardial ischaemia.

Conclusion:
Peak systolic strain rate during dobutamine stress echocardiography is a predictor of all-cause mortality independent of left ventricular hypertrophy and myocardial ischaemia.
