Left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony is an important prognostic marker for higher morbidity and mortality in patients with symptomatic heart failure. However, the response rate to resynchronization varies among patients meeting current guidelines for Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Two-dimensional echocardiography and Doppler-based techniques have shown variable results in the assessment of LV dyssynchrony. There is an obvious need for a noninvasive tool that can reliably measure LV dyssynchrony. Accurate prediction of response to CRT will improve patient selection for such therapy. Real time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) is a novel noninvasive imaging modality that has been recently used in quantitative evaluation of global and regional LV function. A number of published studies have described the use of RT3DE in the measurement of LV dyssynchrony in patients with normal or reduced LV function. The systolic dyssynchrony index derived from RT3DE has been used to quantify LV dysynchrony and to evaluate and predict the response to CRT. This review will discuss the recently published data regarding the role of RT3DE in CRT. 相似文献

Introduction
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is well-established for treating symptomatic heart failure with electrical dyssynchrony. The left ventricular (LV) lead position is recommended at LV posterolateral to lateral sites in patients with left bundle branch block; however, its preferred region remains unclear in patients being upgraded from right ventricular (RV) apical pacing to CRT. This study aimed to identify the preferred LV lead position for upgrading conventional RV apical pacing to CRT.Methods
We used electrode catheters positioned at the RV apex and LV anterolateral and posterolateral sites via the coronary sinus (CS) branches to measure the ratio of activation time to QRS duration from the RV apex to the LV anterolateral and posterolateral sites during RV apical pacing. Simultaneous biventricular pacing was performed at the RV apex and each LV site, and the differences in QRS duration and LV dP/dtmax from those of RV apical pacing were measured.Results
Thirty-seven patients with anterolateral and posterolateral LV CS branches were included. During RV apical pacing, the average ratio of activation time to QRS duration was higher at the LV anterolateral site than at the LV posterolateral site (0.90 ± 0.06 vs. 0.71 ± 0.11, p < .001). The decreasing ratio of QRS duration and the increasing ratio of LV dP/dtmax were higher at the LV anterolateral site than at the posterolateral site (45.7 ± 18.0% vs. 32.0 ± 17.6%, p < .001; 12.7 ± 2.9% vs. 3.7 ± 8.2%, p < .001, respectively) during biventricular pacing compared with RV apical pacing.Conclusion
The LV anterolateral site is the preferred LV lead position in patients being upgraded from conventional RV apical pacing to CRT. 相似文献4.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has emerged as an important method to treat patient with symptomatic heart failure with evidence of intraventricular dyssynchrony. Tissue Doppler imaging by echocardiography has been shown to be an excellent tool for the assessment of mechanical left ventricular dyssynchrony and the selection of patients for CRT. However, there are some patients who do not show symptomatic improvement following CRT. One possible explanation for this is the need to optimize not only longitudinal synchrony, but also improve the circumferential and radial dynamics of the left ventricle. Doppler imaging does not allow reliable assessment of the latter because of the angle-dependency of the technique. Velocity Vector Imaging (VVI) is a newer technique which is angle-independent and thus provides an avenue to evaluate short-axis mechanics of the left ventricle. We describe a case in which VVI was used to assess the left ventricular dynamics in a patient with heart failure who did not respond to CRT. 相似文献

Objective: To evaluate the value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) to predict acute response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
Methods: Sixty consecutive heart failure patients scheduled for CRT were included. RT3DE was performed before and within 48 hours after pacemaker implantation to calculate both left ventricular (LV) volumes and LV dyssynchrony. LV dyssynchrony was defined as the standard deviation of the time taken to reach the minimum systolic volume for 16 LV segments (referred to as the systolic dyssynchrony index, SDI). Patients were subsequently divided into acute responders or nonresponders, based on a reduction ≥ 15% in LV end-systolic volume immediately after CRT.
Results: Four patients (7%) were excluded from further analysis because of either suboptimal apical acquisitions or significant translation artifacts. Out of the remaining 56 patients, 35 patients (63%) were classified as acute responders. Baseline characteristics were similar between responders and nonresponders, except for the SDI, which was larger in responders. Moreover, responders demonstrated a significant reduction of SDI immediately after CRT (from 9.7 ± 4.1% to 3.6 ± 1.8%, P < 0.0001), whereas SDI did not change in nonresponders (3.4 ± 1.8% vs 3.1 ± 1.1%, NS). ROC curve analysis revealed that a cut-off value for SDI of 5.6% yielded a sensitivity of 88% with a specificity of 86% to predict acute echocardiographic response to CRT (AUC 0.96).
Conclusion: RT3DE is highly predictive for acute response to CRT (sensitivity 88% and specificity 86%). In addition, RT3DE allows assessment of changes in LV volumes and LV ejection fraction before and after CRT implantation. 相似文献

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a new method for the correction of inter- and/or intraventricular conduction delays of patients with heart failure. The long-term impact of CRT on central hemodynamics is not fully characterized. We performed complete right heart catheterization studies in 31 patients receiving a CRT device pre and 6 months after implantation. Most of the patients improved in their NYHA stage, their LVEF, and in parallel showed reduced right atrial (RA) pulmonary artery (PA) and pulmonary capillary wedge (PCW) pressures and pulmonary vascular resistance both at rest and at 25 watts. In addition, we found a reduction in heart rate accompanied by an increased mean arterial pressure both at rest and at 25 watts. Accordingly, brain natriuretic peptide levels (BNP) were lowered. It was concluded that, besides other well-known effects on ventricular coordination, central hemodynamics after 6 months were improved during CRT. 相似文献

Background: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) applied by pacing the left and right ventricles (BiV) has been shown to provide synchronous left ventricular (LV) contraction in heart failure patients. CRT may also be accomplished through synchronization of a properly timed LV pacing impulse with intrinsically conducted activation wave fronts. Elimination of right ventricular (RV) pacing may provide a more physiological RV contraction pattern and reduce device current drain. We evaluated the effects of LV and BiV pacing over a range of atrioventricular intervals on the performance of both ventricles.
Methods: Acute LV and RV hemodynamic data from 17 patients with heart failure (EF = 30 ± 1%) and a wide QRS (138 ± 25 msec) or mechanical dyssynchrony were acquired during intrinsic rhythm, BiV, and LV pacing.
Results: The highest LV dP/dtmax was achieved during LV pre- (LV paced prior to an RV sense) and BiV pacing, followed by that obtained during LV post-pacing (LV paced after an RV sense) and the lowest LV dP/dtmax was recorded during intrinsic rhythm. Compared with BiV pacing, LV pre-pacing significantly improved RV dP/dtmax (378 ± 136 mmHg/second vs 397 ± 136 mmHg/second, P < 0.05) and preserved RV cycle efficiency (61.6 ± 14.6% vs 68.6 ± 11.4%, P < 0.05) and stroke volume (6.6 ± 4.4 mL vs 9.0 ± 6.3 mL, P < 0.05). Based on LV dP/dtmax, the optimal atrioventricular interval could be estimated by subtracting 30 msec from the intrinsic atrial to sensed RV interval.
Conclusions: Synchronized LV pacing produces acute LV and systemic hemodynamic benefits similar to BiV pacing. LV pacing at an appropriate atrioventricular interval prior to the RV sensed impulse provides superior RV hemodynamics compared with BiV pacing. 相似文献

Aims: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves functionalcapacity and survival in heart failure. However, one-third ofpatients fail to respond to CRT. Resting left ventricular (LV)dyssynchrony assessed by echocardiography (ECHO) showed discordantresults in identifying CRT responders. LV dyssynchrony can totallychange during exercise. Aim of this study was to evaluate whetherexercise dyssynchrony could select responders to CRT. Methods and results: Sixty-four patients scheduled for CRT implantation performedbicycle exercise ECHO in semi-supine position on an exercisetilting table before and 6 months after CRT implantation. TissueDoppler imaging (TDI) was acquired both at rest and during exerciseto detect LV mechanical dyssynchrony. Predictive values forCRT response were 70% for rest TDI and 89% for exercise TDI(P = 0.01). Exercise LV dyssynchrony was the only parameterindependently associated with follow-up improvement of restejection fraction and LV volume during multivariable analysis(P < 0.001). Functional improvement at 6-min walking testwas statistically higher in patients with exercise dyssynchrony(P = 0.005), and not different considering rest dyssynchrony(P = 0.30). Conclusion: Exercise intraventricular dyssynchrony assessed by exerciseTDI ECHO is a strong independent predictor of CRT response.It could be used to select candidates for CRT, thus reducingineffective implantations of biventricular pacemakers. 相似文献

Background
Left ventricular (LV) lead position may be an important factor for delivering effective cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We therefore aimed to evaluate the effects of LV lead position, stratified by native QRS morphology, regarding the clinical outcome.Methods
A total of 1295 CRT-implanted patients were retrospectively evaluated. LV lead position was classified as lateral, anterior, inferior, or apical, and was determined using the left and right anterior oblique X-ray views. Kaplan Meier and Cox regression were performed to evaluate the effects on all-cause mortality and heart failure hospitalization, and the potential interaction between LV lead position and native ECG morphologies.Results
A total of 1295 patients were included. Patients were aged 69 ± 7 years, 20% were female, 46% received a CRT-Pacemaker (vs. CRT-Defibrillator), mean LVEF was 25% ± 7%, and median follow-up was 3.3 years [IQR 1.6–5–7 years]. Eight hundred and eighty-two patients (68%) had a lateral LV lead location, 207 (16%) anterior, 155 (12%) apical, and 51 (4%) inferior. Patients with lateral LV lead position had larger QRS reduction (−13 ± 27 ms vs. −3 ± 24 ms, p < .001). Non-lateral lead location was associated with a higher risk for all-cause mortality (HR 1.34 [1.09–1.67], p = .007) and heart failure hospitalization (HR 1.25 [1.03–1.52], p = .03). This association was strongest for patients with native left or right bundle branch block, and not significant for patients with prior paced QRS or nonspecific intraventricular conduction delay.Conclusions
In patients treated with CRT, non-lateral LV lead positions (including apical, anterior, and inferior positions) were associated with worse clinical outcome and less reduction of QRS duration. This association was strongest for patients with native LBBB or RBBB. 相似文献17.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies report that the optimal pacing site for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is along the left ventricular (LV) lateral and postero-lateral (PL) wall. However, little is known regarding whether pacing over an akinetic site impacts the contractile response and long-term outcome from CRT. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 38 patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy were studied for their acute hemodynamic and 12-month clinical response to CRT. The intraindividual percentage change in dP/dt (%DeltadP/dt), over baseline, was derived from the mitral regurgitation (MR) Doppler profile with CRT on versus off. Two-dimensional echocardiography was used for myocardial segmentation and determinination of akinetic sites. LV lead implant site was determined using angiographic and radiographic data and categorized as being "on" (group 1) or "off" (group 2) an akinetic site. Long-term response was measured as a combined endpoint of hospitalization for heart failure and/or all cause mortality at 12 months. Time to primary endpoint was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Clinical characteristics and acute hemodynamic response was similar in both (group 1 [n = 14]; %DeltadP/dt 48.8 +/- 67.4% vs group 2 [n = 24]; %DeltadP/dt 32.2 +/- 40.1%, P = 0.92). No difference in long-term outcome was observed (P = 0.59). In contrast, lead placement in PL or mid-lateral (ML) positions was associated with a better acute hemodynamic response when compared to antero-lateral (AL) positions (PL, %DeltadP/dt 45.7 +/- 50.7% and ML, %DeltadP/dt 45.1 +/- 58.8% vs AL, %DeltadP/dt 2.9 +/- 30.9%, respectively, P = 0.014). CONCLUSION: LV lead proximity to an akinetic segment does not impact acute hemodynamic or 12-month clinical response to CRT. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Haemodynamic and functional effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) have been studied mostly at rest. CRT effects on left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony and function during stress have not been evaluated in detail. AIMS: We studied the electromechanical effects of CRT at rest and during Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE), during active and withheld CRT. METHODS: Twenty-one responders to CRT (62+/-12 yr) were assessed by walking test, quality of life, and BNP with active CRT ("on") and 2 weeks after pacing withdrawal ("off"). DSE (10 microg/kg/min) was performed both at "on" and "off" to evaluate dyssynchrony parameters, systolic and diastolic function. RESULTS: At rest, CRT withdrawal was associated with an increased interventricular mechanical delay (IVMD, from 21+/-18 ms to 49+/-24 ms, p<0.001) and impaired intraventricular synchrony. There was a significant decrease in LV systolic function and LV filling time. Dobutamine infusion had no impact on inter- and intraventricular synchrony. During stress, there was an improvement in LV performance both at "on" and "off". However, LV dp/dt, aortic VTI, cardiac output, mean systolic peak velocities and LV filling time during dobutamine stress were significantly greater with CRT "on". CONCLUSION: In long-term responders, CRT improves LV performance both at rest and during dobutamine stress. This is attributable to an improvement in LV synchrony, which is maintained during stress. 相似文献

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether velocity vector imaging (VVI) combined with stress echocardiography could detect potential diffused myocardial impairment of the left ventricle (LV) in diabetic rats. Methods: Thirty-five male SD rats were randomly divided into either the control group or the diabetes mellitus (DM) group (induced with STZ). VVI was performed both at rest and after dipyridamole stress in all rats 12 weeks later. Segmental peak systolic velocity (Vs ), diastolic velocity (Vd ), radial strain (ɛr ), circumferential strain (ɛc ), systolic and diastolic radial strain rate (SRr ), and circumferential strain rate (SRc ) were measured from six segments at the mid-level of the LV. Results: At rest, systolic and diastolic SRc in the DM group were significantly lower than those in the control group. After dipyridamole stress, all VVI parameters in the DM group were significantly lower than those in the control group, although all values increased significantly after dipyridamole stress compared to those at rest in both groups. Conclusions: The VVI-derived Vs, Vd , ɛr , ɛc , systolic and diastolic SRr and SRc , combined with dipyridamole stress are all effective parameters in evaluating potential myocardial impairment due to ultrastructural alterations of cardiocytes and microcirculation disturbances in DM rats. Systolic and diastolic SRc may be more sensitive indices that could be useful in detecting myocardial impairment at rest. 相似文献
