We tested the hypothesis that contractile function using speckle-tracking echocardiographic global circumferential strain (GCS) from 2 short-axis views and global longitudinal strain (GLS) from 3 apical views add prognostic value to electrocardiographic criteria. There were 112 patients (55%) with GLS &gt;\u22129% and 136 patients (66%) with GCS &gt;\u22129%. During 4 years, 81 patients reached the combined primary end point (death, circulatory support, or transplant) and 120 reached the secondary end point (heart failure hospitalization or death). Both GLS &gt;\u22129% and GCS &gt;\u22129% were associated with increased risk of unfavorable events as follows: for the primary end point (hazard ratio=2.91; 95% confidence interval, 1.88\u20134.49;\n              <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt;0.001) and (hazard ratio=3.73; 95% confidence interval, 2.39\u20135.82;\n              <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt;0.001) for the secondary end point (hazard ratio=2.10; 95% confidence interval, 1.45\u20133.05;\n              <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt;0.001) and (hazard ratio=3.25; 95% confidence interval, 2.23\u20134.75;\n              <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt;0.001).
