斑点追踪显像对慢性心力衰竭患者心脏再同步化治疗短期疗效的评价

目的 探讨超声斑点追踪显像(STI)技术对慢性心力衰竭患者心脏再同步化治疗(CRT)短期疗效的评价价值.方法 16例慢性心力衰竭患者,获取心尖长轴观测量各节段收缩期纵向应变达峰时间、径向应变达峰时间,胸骨旁短轴观测环向应变达峰时间,计算CRT术后1个月、术后3个月18节段纵向、径向、环向应变达峰时间标准差(LS-SD18、RS-SD18、CS-SD18),左室各节段收缩期纵向、径向、环向应变达峰时间最大差值(LS-dif、RS-dif、CS-dif)作为应变非同步指标.将术后3个月、1个月18节段纵向、径向、环向应变达峰时间标准差与术前的差值(△LS-SD18、△RS-SD18、ACS-SD18)与术后3个月、1个月左室收缩末容积减少百分比(△ESV%)进行相关性分析.结果 CRT后1个月、术后3个月LS-SD18、RS-SD18、CS-SD18及RS-dif较术前显著减少,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);术后3个月△RS-SD18与术后3个月△ESV%具有明显的相关性(r=0.694).结论 应变非同步指标对评价短期CRT后机械非同步性具有重要意义.

Assessment of short-term effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy by speckle tracking strain imaging

Objective To assess the short-term effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by speckle tracking strain imaging(STI). Methods Sixteen chronic heart failure patients(CHF) with CRT were enrolled. The time to peak systolic longitudinal strain and the time to peak systolic radial strain were derived from the LV apical views, and the time to peak systolic circumferential strain was derived from the parasternal short axis. The standard deviation for time to peak longitudinal, radial and circumferential strain in the 18 segments (LS-SD18, RS-SD18, CS-SD18) and the maximal temporal difference of any two segments(LS-dif, RS-dif, CS-dif) were calculated as a strain-derived dyssynchrony index. The difference of LS-SDIS, RS-SD18, CS-SD18 between 1 month,3 months after CRT and baseline (△LS-SD18, △RS-SD18, △CS-SD18) was calculated. The correlation between △LS-SD18,ARS-SD18,△CS-SD18 and the reduction of end-systolic volume at follow-up(△ESV%) were analyzed. Results The LS-SD18, RS-SD18,CS-SD18 and RS-dif were decreased significantly 1 month,3 months after CRT.△RS-SD18 was correlated with △ESV% 3 months after CRT(r = 0. 694). Conclusions The strain-derived dyssynchrony index is great significient for short-term effect of CRT.
