Objective:To clarify the role of the newly developed four-dimensional strain imaging(4D-SI) in the prediction of the left ventricular function improvement after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Methods:55 patients diagnosed with coronary heart disease(CHD) by coronary angiography and successfully provided with PCI were recruited. After 6 months of follow up, the CHD patients were grouped into A and B group based on whether having left ventricular function recovery or not. Before and after PCI, left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) by echocardiography, the global longitudinal peak strain(2D-GLPS) by strain imaging using automated function imaging (AFI), global longitudinal peak strain(4D-GLPS), circumferential peak strain(4D-GCPS),radial peak strain(4D-GRPS) and area peak strain (4D-GAPS) by 4D-SI were assessed. Results:Before and after PCI,all left ventricular strain values of A group were higher than those of B group(P<0.001);the single parameter mode of ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC)(0.944), sensitivity(91.3%) and specificity (93.8%) of 4D-GAPS were relatively higher than other strain parameters.The single technology mode of ROC curve analysis showed that AUC(0.969),sensitivity(95.7%) and specificity(90.6%) of 4D-SI were higher than those of the AFI-based longitudinal strain. Conclusion:4D-SI is a more accurate and comprehensive method in the prediction of the left ventricular myocardial function recovery, and 4D-GAPS, a novel automatic index, as well as 4D-GCPS, can act as independent predictors in the left ventricular myocardial function recovery. |
