Benefit of late coronary reperfusion on ventricular morphology and function after myocardial infarction.

Abstract：

OBJECTIVES:This study was designed to examine the relation between the timing and adequacy of perfusion of the infarct bed and changes in ventricular size and the extent of abnormal wall motion after acute myocardial infarction. METHODS:A validated echocardiographic mapping technique was used to measure the left ventricular endocardial surface area index and the extent of abnormal wall motion over a 3-month period in 91 patients who had either 1) no anterograde or collateral flow to the infarct bed (n = 14), 2) only collateral flow to the infarct bed (n = 18), 3) restoration of anterograde flow to the infarct bed within hours of chest pain (early [n = 43]), or 4) restoration of anterograde flow to the infarct bed within a mean of 5 days after acute myocardial infarction (late [n = 16]). RESULTS:Over the follow-up period, a progressive and significant increase in endocardial surface area index was observed only in the group of patients without anterograde or collateral flow to the infarct bed (entry 64 +/- 3.4 cm2/m2 vs. 3 months 75.9 +/- 6.4 cm2/m2, p < 0.005). In contrast, a progressive reduction in the extent of abnormal wall motion was evident in the group of patients in whom anterograde flow to the infarct bed was restored within hours (entry 26.7 +/- 2.5 cm2 vs. 3 months 11.8 +/- 2.9 cm2, p < 0.001) or days (entry 22.1 +/- 3.6 cm2 vs. 3 months 11.8 +/- 3.3 cm2, p < 0.001) of coronary occlusion. Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis confirmed that by 3 months, 1) ventricular size was independently related to endocardial surface area index and abnormal wall motion at entry (p < 0.0001) and to the change in abnormal wall motion over the follow-up period (p < 0.0001), and 2) the change in abnormal wall motion was related to the presence of anterograde flow to the infarct bed (p < 0.0001) independent of the timing of reperfusion, infarct site or the extent of abnormal wall motion on admission. CONCLUSIONS:After myocardial infarction, the process of ventricular remodeling is influenced by changes in the extent of abnormal wall motion, which in turn are related to the adequacy rather than the timing of perfusion of the infarct bed.
