Myocardial performance index

Last revised by Tom Foster on 6 Jul 2023

Myocardial performance index, also known as Tei index was introduced in 1995 by Tei et al 1. It gives information about global ventricular function 2.

It is calculated by dividing sum of isovolumetric contraction time (IVCT) and isovolumetric relaxation time (IVRT) with ejection time (ET), i.e. MPI = (IVCT + IVRT) / ET
