Abstract
Background: Assessment of left ventricular (LV) function and volume after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is recommended to guide clinical decision within and after hospitalization. Early after STEMI, initial LV reshaping and hypokinesia may affect analysis of LV function. A comparative evaluation of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and stroke volume (SV) by different imaging modalities to assess LV function early after STEMI has not been performed so far. Methods: LV function was assessed by LVEF and SV using serial imaging within 24h and 5 days after STEMI with cineventriculography (CVG), 2-dimensional echocardiography (2DE), 2D and 3D cardiovascular magnetic resonance (2D/3D) in 82 patients. Respective parameters were compared between modalities and to 3D gold standard CMR. Results: 2D analyses of LVEF using CVG and 2DE as well as 2D CMR yielded uniform results within 24h and 5 days of STEMI. SV assessment between CVG and 2DE at day 1 after STEMI was comparable, whereas values for SV were higher using 2D CMR on all occasions (p<0.01 all). This was due to higher LVEDV measurements. LVEF by 2D versus 3D CMR was comparable, 3D CMR yielded consistently higher volumetric values. This was not influenced by infarct location or infarct size. Conclusions Early after STEMI, 2D analysis of LVEF yielded robust results across all imaging techniques implying that CVG, 2DE, and 2D CMR can be used interchangeably in this setting. SV measurements to assess cardiac function differed substantially between imaging techniques due to higher intermodality-differences of absolute volumetric measurements.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, a peer-reviewed international scientific journal, serves as an aid to understanding the flow properties of blood and the relationship to normal and abnormal physiology. The rapidly expanding science of hemorheology concerns blood, its components and the blood vessels with which blood interacts. It includes perihemorheology, i.e., the rheology of fluid and structures in the perivascular and interstitial spaces as well as the lymphatic system. The clinical aspects include pathogenesis, symptomatology and diagnostic methods, and the fields of prophylaxis and therapy in all branches of medicine and surgery, pharmacology and drug research.
The endeavour of the Editors-in-Chief and publishers of Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation is to bring together contributions from those working in various fields related to blood flow all over the world. The editors of Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation are from those countries in Europe, Asia, Australia and America where appreciable work in clinical hemorheology and microcirculation is being carried out. Each editor takes responsibility to decide on the acceptance of a manuscript. He is required to have the manuscript appraised by two referees and may be one of them himself. The executive editorial office, to which the manuscripts have been submitted, is responsible for rapid handling of the reviewing process.
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation accepts original papers, brief communications, mini-reports and letters to the Editors-in-Chief. Review articles, providing general views and new insights into related subjects, are regularly invited by the Editors-in-Chief. Proceedings of international and national conferences on clinical hemorheology (in original form or as abstracts) complete the range of editorial features.
