Evaluation of cardiac function in patients with myocardial infarction by ultrasonic speckle detection / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of ultrasonic speckle technique on cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods 30 patients with AMI were selected as observation group,30 healthy people were selected as control group,and they were all detected by ultrasonic speckle technique.The differences of measurement indices of cardiac function with ultrasonic speckle technique were compared between the observation group and control group.The difference between ultrasonic speckle technique and its measured value was observed with single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT) as the gold standard.The correlation between the results of three-dimensional speckle ultrasound and SPECT in patients with AMI was analyzed.Results The parameters of LVEDV [(62.2 ± 6.4) mL vs.(80.3 ± 7.5) mL],LVESV [(21.7 ± 5.6) mL vs.(35.4 ± 7.2) mL] and LVEF [(62.6 ± 5.9)％ vs.(72.8 ± 5.6)％] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,the IVSTd [(1.1 ± 0.2) cm vs.(0.9 ± 0.2) cm] and LVPWd [(1.2 ± 0.2) cm vs.(0.8 ± 0.1) cm] were significantly higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(t =8.431,9.865,3.651,8.798,6.654,all P ＜ 0.05).In AMI patients,there were no significant differences in left ventricular parameters LVEDV,LVESV,LVEF measured between ultrasonic speckle technique and SPECT(all P ＞ 0.05).With SPECT as the gold standard,in AMI patients,the ultrasound parameters LVEDV,LVESV and LVEF were positively correlated with SPECT parameters(r =0.912,0.903,0.899,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound speckle technique can well evaluate myocardial function in patients with myocardial infarction.
