Diastolic wall motion abnormality after myocardial infarction: relation to neurohormonal activation and prognostic implications.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND:Systolic wall motion abnormality (WMA) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of outcome; the presence and importance of diastolic WMA after AMI are unknown. We therefore sought to detect diastolic WMA using color kinesis and to assess its relation to neurohormonal activation and its prognostic importance in a consecutive population with a first AMI. METHODS:Complete color-encoded color kinesis and 2-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography were performed in 149 consecutive patients with documented first AMI within 24 hours of their admission. N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide was measured 3 days after AMI. Study end point was cardiac death or readmission for heart failure. RESULTS:Diastolic area of WMA exceeded the systolic area in all but 5 patients (97%) and was significantly correlated with brain natriuretic peptide (unadjusted beta = .67, P < .0001; adjusted for systolic function, age, Killip class, and overall diastolic function beta = .27, P = .007). Diastolic WMA was also correlated with the number of diseased vessels on coronary angiography (beta = .59, P < .0001). During follow-up, 25 patients died and 11 were readmitted because of recurrent heart failure. On univariate analysis, the area of diastolic WMA was a predictor of the composite end point (hazard ratio 1.07 [95% CI 1.05-1.09], P < .0001) and remained a predictor on multivariate Cox analysis after adjustment of well-known risk factors, left ventricular systolic and overall diastolic functions (hazard ratio 1.09 [95% CI 1.06-1.15], P < .001). CONCLUSION:The extent of diastolic WMA can be assessed early after AMI using color kinesis. Diastolic WMA is associated with neurohormonal activation and angiographic severity of coronary artery disease and provides independent prognostic information.
