[Evaluation of right ventricular function in severe left ventricular failure: comparison of old myocardial infarction with dilated cardiomyopathy].

Abstract:

:To evaluate right ventricular (RV) function in severe left ventricular (LV) failure, we measured RV and LV ejection fractions (EF) in 18 patients with old myocardial infarction (OMI) and in 18 with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) using cardiac blood pool scintigraphy. In patients with OMI, RVEF was significantly greater in stage II LV failure than in stage III (functional class of the New York Heart Association, 47 +/- 8% and 28 +/- 12%, respectively: p less than 0.01), and this correlated well with exercise tolerance by bicycle ergometer and mean pulmonary artery pressure (r = 0.83 and r = -0.71, respectively). In patients with DCM, however, there was no correlation between RVEF and these indexes. After the oral administration of denopamine (beta 1 effector), both RVEF and LVEF increased in patients with OMI (35 +/- 13% to 45 +/- 12%, and 27 +/- 9% to 30 +/- 10%: p less than 0.01), but they did not change significantly in patients with DCM. These results indicate that RVEF in patients with OMI correlates well with subjective symptoms, exercise tolerance and RV afterload, but these correlations were not apparent in patients with DCM. We concluded that RV function in cases of severe LV failure has a different meaning between OMI and DCM.
