[Noninvasive evaluation of left ventricular function using new systolic time intervals obtained from continuous-wave Doppler echocardiography].

Abstract:

:Left ventricular function was evaluated using parameters derived from the flow velocity waveforms at the ascending aorta as obtained at the suprasternal notch by continuous-wave Doppler echocardiography in 39 patients; 12 with chest pain but without coronary stenosis, eight with angina pectoris; and 19 with myocardial infarction. Peak flow velocity and the time interval from the beginning of the Q wave of lead II of the ECG to peak flow velocity (Q-V peak) correlated with specific invasive hemodynamic parameters, such as max dp/dt and (max dp/dt)/IP (IP: total left ventricular pressure at the same instant) during isometric contraction of the left ventricle measured with a catheter tip manometer, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) obtained by bi-plane cineangiography (using the area-length method). There was no correlation between the peak flow velocity and the invasive hemodynamic parameters. However, significant negative correlations were observed between the Q-V peak time and max dp/dt, with r = 0.40 (p less than 0.05), and between the Q-V peak time and (max dp/dt)/IP with r = -0.61 (p less than 0.01). A negative correlation was obtained between the Q-V peak time and LVEF (r = -0.75, p less than 0.01). The regression equation was LVEF = -0.67 x (Q-V peak) + 176. To compare the effectiveness for predicting LVEF between the Q-V peak and the established systolic time intervals as PEP and PEP/ET, these time intervals were measured from flow velocity waveforms invasively obtained with a catheter-type electromagnetic flowmeter inserted into the ascending aorta in 14 patients selected from the original subjects.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

  • Association between sleep apnea and overnight hemodynamic changes in hospitalized heart failure patients with and without paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea (PND) is a common symptom for patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). Some symptoms of PND are similar to those of sleep apnea (SA) which might be associated with overnight worsening hemodynamics in failing hearts. However, the association between PND, SA, and ove...
