Effects of Lurasidone on Left Ventricle Systolic Functions

Global longitudinal strain measurement is a more objective method to determine left ventricular systolic function than traditional eyeballing method. It helps to detect and quantify subtle changes even so it is an emerging method to evaluate the cardiotoxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs. It is planned to compare each selected patient's GLS measurement before starting to use lurasidone and after six months of using it. Hereby our aim is to find if lurasidone has any effect on left ventricular systolic function.
