目的:评价12导联心电图对扩张型心肌病致慢性心力衰竭(心衰)患者预后的预测作用。方法:前瞻性、多中心随访787例扩张型心肌病致慢性心衰患者。通过门诊随诊或电话、信件随访慢性心衰患者的终点事件。用Cox风险比例回归分析确定全因死亡的独立预测因子,对QRS时限是否大于120 ms等心电图指标用Kaplan-Meier曲线进行生存分析(log-rank检验)。结果:随访过程中203例死亡。经Cox回归分析发现心房颤动与全因死亡有关[风险比(HR)=2.064;95%可信区间(CI):1.102~3.864,P0.05];非持续性室性心动过速与全因死亡有关[HR=3.887;95%CI:1.554~9.724,P0.05];QRS时限与全因死亡有关[HR=1.010;95%CI:1.002~1.018,P0.05]。Kaplan-Meier生存曲线分析显示,以QRS时限分层,不同水平的QRS时限其生存率之间的差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:对扩张型心肌病致慢性心衰患者生存率有影响的心电图指标是心房颤动、非持续性室性心动过速和QRS时限;不同水平QRS时限与生存率之间存在显著差异。 相似文献

目的:探讨心肌病猝死高危患者中有预测价值的无创性指标。方法:回顾性分析410例心肌病住院患者的恶性心律失常[室性心动过速(VT)或心室颤动(VF)]发生率及左室射血分数(LVEF),并随访调查心源性猝死(SCD)的发生情况。测量其中心电图记录清晰的200例患者(心肌病组)的心电图参数QRS时限、QT间期和Tp-Te间期,计算QTc。取80例健康者作为心电图参数对照组,比较2组QTc分布情况。根据QRS时限将上述200例患者分为QRS≥120ms(75例)和QRS<120ms(125例)。根据LVEF值将410例患者分为30%≤LVEF≤35%(207例),35%50%(18例)。分别对无创性指标LVEF、QTc、Tp-Te、QRS与VT/VF、SCD发生的关系进行分析。结果:410例中,245例(59.8%)发生心律失常,其中心房颤动102例(24.9%),VT/VF 54例(13.2%),Ⅰ度房室传导阻滞15例(3.7%),Ⅱ~Ⅲ度房室传导阻滞15例(3.7%),其余并发房性期前收缩或室性期前收缩共59例(14.4%)。心肌病组中QTc≥460ms者所占比例明显高于对照组(22.0%:7.5%,P<0.01);Tp-Te与QTc呈正相关(P=0.009);QRS≥120ms者的SCD发生率比QRS<120ms者明显增加(32.0%:18.4%,P<0.05)。随着LVEF降低,SCD发生率有增高趋势,但均差异无统计学意义。结论:高度房室传导阻滞、VT/VF是心肌病高发SCD的常见原因。QTc≥460ms和Tp-Te延长、QRS≥120ms是预测心肌病患者SCD发生的有效参数;LVEF可能具有预测心肌病患者发生VT/VF的潜在价值。 相似文献

Mixed cohorts of patients with ischemic and nonischemic end-stage heart failure (HF) with a QRS duration of ≥120 ms and requiring intravenous inotropes do not appear to benefit from cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). However, CRT does provide greater benefit to patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy and might, therefore, be able to reverse the HF syndrome in such patients who are inotrope dependent. To address this question, 226 patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy who received a CRT-defibrillator and who had a left ventricular ejection fraction of ≤35% and QRS of ≥120 ms were followed up for the outcomes of death, transplantation, and ventricular assist device placement. Follow-up echocardiograms were performed in patients with ≥6 months of transplant- and ventricular assist device-free survival after CRT. The patients were divided into 3 groups: (1) never took inotropes (n = 180), (2) weaned from inotropes before CRT (n = 30), and (3) dependent on inotropes at CRT implantation (n = 16). At 47 ± 30 months of follow-up, the patients who had never taken inotropes had had the longest transplant- and ventricular assist device-free survival. The inotrope-dependent patients had the worst outcomes, and the patients weaned from inotropes experienced intermediate outcomes (p <0.0001). Reverse remodeling and left ventricular ejection fraction improvement followed a similar pattern. Among the patients weaned from and dependent on inotropes, a central venous pressure <10 mm Hg on right heart catheterization before CRT was predictive of greater left ventricular functional improvement, more profound reverse remodeling, and longer survival free of transplantation or ventricular assist device placement. In conclusion, inotrope therapy before CRT is an important marker of adverse outcomes after implantation in patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy, with inotrope dependence denoting irreversible end-stage HF unresponsive to CRT. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: With the exception of a few cases such as aborted sudden cardiac death, sustained ventricular tachycardia, and syncope of unexplained origin, there is no consensus on the clinical findings identifying patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death or malignant ventricular arrhythmias. METHODS: To verify whether electrocardiographic and arrhythmologic features could be useful for prognostic stratification, 78 consecutive patients with an invasive diagnosis of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, but without symptomatic ventricular arrhythmias, were enrolled in a prospective study. Signal-averaged ECG, 24 to 48 hour ECG monitoring and electrophysiologic study were performed at the time of diagnosis to identify arrhythmogenic predictors of outcome. Transplant-free and arrhythmic event-free survival was evaluated on the basis of initial parameters. RESULTS: During a mean follow-up of 85 months, 9 patients died (6 of sudden cardiac death and 3 of congestive heart failure), 10 patients underwent cardiac transplantation for refractory heart failure, and 3 presented with sustained ventricular tachycardia. The independent predictors for death and cardiac transplantation were an HV interval > 55 ms and the combination of frequent repetitive ventricular ectopics with a poor left ventricular function. A strong index of arrhythmic events proved to be the association of a prolonged HV interval with a wide (> 110 ms) QRS complex (odds ratio 4.53, 95% confidence interval 1.57-13.04, p < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: An accurate measurement of the HV interval and QRS duration at baseline evaluation may add prognostic information in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. In our experience, abnormal values of both parameters identified a group of patients with a very high risk of late occurring arrhythmic events. 相似文献

As part of the 2010 focused update of ESC guidelines on device therapy in heart failure, the guidelines on pacemakers in the treatment of heart failure were renewed. A new feature is that cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is indicated for New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III and IV irrespective of the presence of left ventricular dilatation and specified for NYHA class IV (patient ambulatory, stable, life expectancy >6 months). Furthermore, NYHA class II (but not class I) has been added when there is left bundle branch block and QRS duration ≥150 ms. CRT is also indicated for patients in NYHA class III-IV with permanent atrial fibrillation and heart failure [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 35%] when QRS is ≥ 130 ms and ventricular rate has slowed either spontaneously or by AV node ablation. In patients with heart failure (NYHA class II-IV, LVEF ≤ 35%) who need a pacemaker for AV block, CRT is generally indicated to avoid progression of heart failure caused by right ventricular stimulation, also in cases of intrinsic QRS <120 ms. For patients with terminal heart failure who are not eligible for heart transplantation, treatment with a left ventricular assist device can be performed as destination therapy. The new guidelines expand the indication for device therapy in heart failure based on the newest study findings, particularly for patients in NYHA class II, and specify the old guidelines. There are still uncertainties that must be investigated in randomized trials regarding patients with permanent atrial fibrillation, the indication for CRT in heart block, and the question of CRT with pacemaker or defibrillator. 相似文献

Relationship between QRS duration and left ventricular dyssynchrony in patients with end-stage heart failure 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22

INTRODUCTION: Patients with end-stage heart failure and a wide QRS complex are considered candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). However, 20% to 30% of patients do not respond to CRT. Lack of left ventricular dyssynchrony may explain the nonresponse. Accordingly, we evaluated the presence of left ventricular dyssynchrony using tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in 90 consecutive patients with heart failure. METHODS AND RESULTS: Ninety patients with severe heart failure (left ventricular ejection fraction <35%, New York Heart Association class III-IV) were prospectively evaluated. Based on QRS duration, 30 consecutive patients with a narrow QRS complex were included (QRS duration 150 ms). All patients underwent TDI to assess left ventricular dyssynchrony. Extensive left ventricular dyssynchrony was defined as an electromechanical delay on TDI between the septum and lateral wall, the so-called septal-to-lateral delay, of >60 ms. Severe dyssynchrony was observed in 27% of patients with narrow QRS complex, 60% with intermediate QRS duration, and 70% with wide QRS complex. No relation existed between QRS duration and septal-to-lateral delay. CONCLUSION: From 30% to 40% of heart failure patients with QRS duration >120 ms do not exhibit left ventricular dyssynchrony, which may explain the nonresponse to CRT. Alternatively, 27% of patients with heart failure and a narrow QRS complex show significant left ventricular dyssynchrony and may be candidates for CRT. 相似文献

Conduction delay affecting 30-50% of patients with NYHA class III-IV heart failure (HF) mainly results from left bundle branch block and leads to deterioration of cardiac contractility through intra- and interventricular dyssynchrony. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has class I recommendation for the treatment of patients with severe systolic HF who have left ventricular ejection fraction less or equal to 35%, QRS duration greater than or equal to 120 ms. Nevertheless some studies have shown that systolic asynchrony is present in 27-43% of HF patients with narrow QRS complexes (defined as <120 ms). We present here results of CRT in 20 patients (13 male, 7 female). Main indication for CRT was ventricular dyssynchrony during basic cardiac rhythm or cardiac pacing independently of QRS width. In 4 patients width of QRS complex was less than 120 ms, in 3 QRS varied from 120 to 149 ms pts and in 13 it was equal to or exceeded 150 ms. CRT in patients with narrow QRS resulted in clinical improvement associated with increase of cardiac contractility and decrease of left ventricular end systolic volume. This allows to conclude that CRT can be beneficial for HF patients with narrow QRS and ventricular dyssynchrony. 相似文献

Background: Identification of the responder candidates for multisite pacing is still difficult and severe heart failure, dilated left ventricle with reduced ejection fraction, prolonged QRS with left bundle branch block (LBBB) are still considered the principal indicators of ventricular desynchronization. The aim of the study was to assess if echographic ventricular desynchronization parameters measured in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and severe heart failure are correlated with the duration of the QRS on surface electrocardiogram. Methods: This study included 51 patients aged 58.8 ± 7.4 years with idiopathic DCM. The following parameters were measured: QRS duration; effective contraction time (ECT) measured as the interval between QRS onset and closure of aortic valve, interventricular delay (IVD) measured as the time between onset of aortic and pulmonary flow, left ventricular mechanical delay (LVD) as the time from maximal interventricular septum contraction and posterior wall contraction, posterior (P), lateral (L), and posterolateral (PL) wall delays, as the time from QRS onset to maximal wall contraction. Regional post‐systolic contraction was defined in a given wall as the difference (contraction delay ? ECT)> 50 ms. Results: 29 patients presented complete LBBB, 22 patients had QRS duration < 120 ms. 39 patients had a post‐systolic contraction of the PL wall (32 patients of the L wall and 26 patients of the P wall). 16 patients with QRS duration <120 had a post‐systolic contraction of the PL wall (as for the LBBB the rest of 39 patients). In 40 patients the sequence of regional ventricular contraction was: P‐L‐PL wall (16 patients with QRS < 120). LVD was > 100 ms in 36 patients (26 patients with LBBB and 10 with QRS < 120). 27 patients with LBBB and 6 with QRS < 120 ms presented IVD > 30 ms. There was no correlation between the QRS duration and the parameters listed above. Conclusions: In a population of patients with severe heart failure and dilated cardiomyopathy there is no correlation between the duration of the QRS and echocardiographic parameters of ventricular desynchronization. These results show that mechanical ventricular desynchronization can be observed in patients with a QRS duration < 120 ms. Further studies are needed to evaluate if this population could beneficiate of multisite pacing therapy. 相似文献

Background: Increasing QRS duration may be of prognostic significance in patients with right bundle branch block (RBBB) and may assist in predicting overall cardiovascular risk. Methods: To test this hypothesis, we examined the Computerized Patient Records of patients with complete and persistent RBBB. Primary and secondary end points were all‐cause and cardiac mortality. The effects of QRS duration on death rates were analyzed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model (P < 0.05). We identified 52,852 patients with EKGs and selected all those with diagnosis of RBBB (QRS ≥ 120 ms) between January 2000 and January 2004. Some patients had EKG records confirming RBBB since 1987. The QRS durations were categorized into four groups: 120–129, 130–139, 140–149, and ≥ 150 ms. Results: A total of 997 (1.9%) patients (mean age 68.9 ± 10 years) with RBBB were followed for 1–226 (median 45) months. All‐cause mortality occurred in 344 (34.5%), cardiac deaths in 59 (5.9%), noncardiac in 191 (19.2%), and unknown causes in 94 (9.4%) patients. Mean left ventricular EF for cardiac patients was 38 ± 15%. In patients with cardiac deaths, QRS duration was associated with increased morality (P < 0.007). For every 10 ms increase in QRS duration, the risk of death rose by 26.6%. The effect of QRS duration on all cause mortality was not statistically significant (P < 0.43). Conclusion: Increasing QRS duration was an independent predictor of cardiac mortality in patients with RBBB, but had no influence on all‐cause mortality. QRS duration has added prognostic information to the presence of right bundle branch block. 相似文献

We evaluated 61 consecutive patients who had coronary artery disease, decreased left ventricular function, and syncope and underwent implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator because sustained ventricular tachycardia was inducible at electrophysiologic testing. During a follow-up of 3.0 +/- 1.8 years, 23 patients (38%) developed ventricular tachycardia. Prolonged QRS duration (>/=120 ms) was the only significant predictor of arrhythmia. The 1- and 2-year rates without ventricular arrhythmia were 82% and 77%, respectively, in patients whose QRS duration was <120 ms. In contrast, 1- and 2-year rates without ventricular arrhythmia were only 64% and 51%, respectively, in patients whose QRS duration was >/=120 ms (risk ratio 3.7, 95% confidence interval 1.4 to 9.8, p = 0.0092). 相似文献

We evaluated patients with end-stage heart failure who have a high likelihood of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (biventricular pacing). It appears that 20% of patients do not respond to this expensive therapy despite the use of selection criteria (dilated cardiomyopathy, heart failure, New York Heart Association class II or IV, left ventricular ejection fraction <35%, left bundle branch block, and QRS >120 ms). The presence of left ventricular dyssynchrony is needed to result in improvement after cardiac resynchronization therapy. 相似文献
