ABSTRACT
Objective:To discuss the clinical assessment value of comprehensive echocardiographic parameters in detecting the left ventricular diastolic function in patients with hypertension. Methods: 60 hypertensive patients (30 cases without left ventricular hypertrophy (non-LVH), 30 cases with left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH) were divided into hypertension group, and 60 healthy subjects were in control group. All of the subjects were underwent M type, color ultrasound and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI). And to compare their comprehensive echocardiographic parameters.Results: Compared with the healthy control group, the IVSd, LVPWd, LVMI, LAD and LVD of hypertension group were significantly enlargement; the s', e', E peak and LVEDP of hypertension group also significantly increased, while a' and A peak were significantly reduced; compared with non-LVH, e', E peak and LVEDP of LVH group were significantly increased, and a' and A peak were significantly reduced, and these differences were statistically significant (t=-4.39,t=-4.39,t=5.47,t=-8.02, t=6.20,t=18.95, t=16.12;P<0.01).Conclusion: The comprehensive echocardiographic parameters can evaluate the extent of damage for left ventricular diastolic function of patients with hypertension, and they can be as the assessment standard of left ventricular hypertrophy. In clinical practice, TDI can be used as a new means in the evaluation of ventricular diastolic function.
