Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: Foundation. Main funding source(s): Russian Foundation for Basic Research Introduction Impaired cardiac sympathetic activity and contractility are associated with poor prognosis in patients with heart failure after cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). There are few prognostic data of the cardiac sympathetic activity and dyssynchrony in patients with chronic heart failure of various etiologies. Purpose To examine the prognostic significance of scintigraphic cardiac sympathetic activity and contractility in predicting the response to CRT and to assess the differences between patients with ischemic (IHF) and non-ischemic (NIHF) heart failure. Methods This study included 38 heart failure patients (24 male; mean age of 56 ± 11 years; 16 patients with ischemic etiology), who were submitted to CRT. Before CRT all patients underwent 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) imaging for cardiac sympathetic activity evaluating: early and delay heart to mediastinum ratio (eH/M and dH/M), summed MIBG Score (eSMS and dSMS). Moreover all patients underwent gated SPECT with the assessments of left ventricle dyssynchrony indexes: standard deviation (SD) and histogram bandwidth (HBW). In addition, all patients underwent gated blood-pool SPECT (GBPS) to assessed ejection fraction (EF) and stroke volume (SV) of both ventricles. Results One year after CRT response defined as LV ESV decreased by≥15% and/or LV EF increase by≥5%. Baseline cardiac sympathetic activity parameters showed significant differences between responders and non-responders only in NIHF patients: eH/M: 2.27 (2.02–2.41) vs. 1.64 (1.32–2.16); dH/M: 2.18 (2.11–2.19) vs. 1.45 (1.23 – 1.61); eSMS: 7 (5-7) vs. 15.5 (10–28.5); dSMS: 10 (10–13) vs. 16.5 (15.5–29). Significant differences in baseline LV dyssynchrony indexes between responders and non-responders were in patients of both group: in NIHF patients - SD: 54.3 (43–58) degree vs. 65 (62–66) degree; HBW: 179.5 (140–198) degree vs. 211 (208-213) degree, p < 0.054 in IHF patients - HBW: 162 (115.2–180) degree vs.  115.2 (79.2–136.8) degree. Contractility of RV was significantly differed between responders and non-responders in IHF patients: RV EF: 54.5 (41-56) % vs. 44.5 (37–49.5) %; RV SV: 80 (69-101) ml vs. 55.5 (50–72.5) ml. According to univariate logistic regression analyses in IHF patients LV dyssynchrony indexes – SD (OR = 1.55; 95% CI 1.09-2.2; p < 0.5) and HBW (OR = 1.13; 95% CI 1.02-1.24; p < 0.5), as well as RV indexes – RV EF (OR = 1.11; 95% CI 1.001-1.23; p < 0.5), RV SV (OR = 1.07; 95% CI 1.003-1.138; p < 0.5) were predictors of CRT response. In the group of NIHF patients, dH/M (OR = 1.47; 95% CI 1.08-2; p < 0.5), SD (OR = 0.83; 95% CI 0.73-0.95; p < 0.5), HBW (OR = 0.96; 95% CI 0.93-0.99; p < 0.5) showed the predictive value in terms of CRT response. Conclusion  Scintigraphic methods can be used to select patients for CRT. Cardiac 123I-MIBG scintigraphy and gated SPECT may be used for predicting CRT response in NIHF patients. Whereas in IHF patients ECG-gated SPECT and GBPS may be valuable for predicting the response to CRT.

The Mean

Introduction: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is relatively new tool in treatment of chronic heart failure (HF), especially in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) with the left bundle branch block (LBBB). Objective: The Objective of our study was to assess the success of CRT in treatment of severe HF and the role of echocardiography in the evaluation of Results of such therapy. Method: The group consisted of 19 patients, 13 males and 6 females, mean age 58.0?8.22 years (47-65 years) with CRT applied for DCM, severe HF (NYHA III-IV), LBBB and ejection fraction (EF) <35%. The mean follow up was 17 months (6.5-30). Standard color Doppler echocardiography examination was performed in all patients before and after CRT. The parameters of systolic and diastolic left ventricular function, mitral insufficiency and the right ventricular pressure were evaluated. Results: Following the CRT, statistically significant improvement of the end-systolic LV dimension, cardiac output, cardiac index, myocardial performance index (p<0.01) and stroke index (p<0.05) was recorded. The mean value of EFLV was increased by 10% and LV fractional shortening improved by 6% in 10/16 (62%) patients. CRT resulted in decreased MR (p<0.01), prolonged LV diastolic filling time (p<0.02) and reduced RV pressure (p<0.05). Interventricular mechanical delay was shortened by 28% (18 msec) Conclusion: CRT has an important role in improvement of LV function and correction of ventricular asynchrony. The echocardiography is a useful tool for evaluation of HF treatment with CRT.
