RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Left ventricular remodeling (LVR) is the most prognostically important consequence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The aim of the study was to assess the value of speckle tracking echocardiography in the prediction of left ventricular remodeling in patients after AMI and primary coronary angioplasty (PCI). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Eighty-eight patients (F/M = 31/57 patients; 63.6 ±11 years old) with coronary artery disease (CAD) and successful PCI were enrolled and divided into group I with ST-elevation myocardial infarction or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction and group II with stable angina pectoris. Conventional and speckle tracking echocardiography was performed 3 days (baseline), 30 days and 90 days after PCI. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the presence of LVR (increase of LV end-diastolic and/or end-systolic volume > 20%) at 3 months follow-up. RESULTS: At initial presentation, 2-chamber longitudinal strain (9.4 ±3.5% vs. -11.6 ±3.6%, p < 0.04) and 4-chamber transverse strain (10.4 ±8.2% vs. 15.6 ±8%, p < 0.003) were lower in the LVR+ group compared to the LVR- group. LV wall motion score index did not differ between the two groups. After 30 days, circumferential apical and basal strain (-15.58 ±8.9% vs. -25.53 ±8.8%, p < 0.001; -15.02 ±5.6 vs. -19.78 ±6.3, p < 0.008), radial apical strain (9.96 ±8.4% vs. 14.15 ±5.5%, p < 0.03), 4-chamber longitudinal strain (-8.7 ±5.8% vs. -13.47 ±3.9%, p < 0.005), 4-chamber transverse strain (10.5 ±8.1% vs. 16.7 ±8.3%, p < 0.03), apical rotation (3.84 ±2.5° vs, 5.66 ±3.2°, p < 0.04) and torsion (6.15 ±4.1° vs. 8.98 ±4.6°, p < 0.03) were significantly decreased in the LVR+ group compared to the LVR- group. According to ROC analysis, circumferential apical strain > -15.92% (sensitivity 93%, specificity 59%, positive predictive value 90%) was the most powerful predictor of remodeling after primary PCI in AMI. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that impaired indices of LV deformation detected 3 days and 30 days after AMI may provide important predictive value in LV remodeling and patients' follow-up.
