Ischemia at rest is independent of the extent of ventricular dysfunction and arrhythmias in patients with coronary artery disease.

Abstract:

:To assess the relation between myocardial ischemia, ventricular arrhythmias (VA), and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, we evaluated 74 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) using radionuclide angiography (to determine the resting ejection fraction [EF]), resting thallium-201 scintigraphy (to ascertain the extent of resting ischemia), and 24-hour Holter monitoring (to assess VA). Thirty patients had resting ischemia, 26 had resting EF less than 30%, and 27 had repetitive VA. Patients with and without ischemia had similar EFs (36 +/- 14 vs 38 +/- 14, p = NS). Further, patients with and without repetitive forms of VA had a similar number of resting ischemic segments (1.1 +/- 1.7 vs 1.1 +/- 2.2, p = NS). Patients with EFs less than 30 had more VA than patients with EFs greater than or equal to 30 (Holter class 4.3 +/- 2.3 vs 3.0 +/- 1.8, p less than 0.01) but a similar extent of ischemia (1.4 +/- 2.2 vs 1.0 +/- 1.7, p = NS). Thus, while patients with lower EFs have more repetitive forms of VA, ischemia at rest is independent of VA and EF. These data suggest that prognostic stratification of patients with CAD for intervention studies should include a separate consideration of ischemia.
