Therapeutic Decision Making

Background. The most important predictors of subsequent patients outcome after acute myocardial infarction (AIM) are infarct size, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular volumes and presence and extent of residual myocardial ischemia. All of these variables can be directly determined through scintigraphic approaches. The presence and extent of myocardial ischemia are strong predictors for fatal and nonfatal cardiac events and improve risk statification beyond the information gleaned from clinical variables. Case report. We presented a case of 66-years-old male with myocardial infarction of anteroseptal localization. Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) detected a large zone of residual ischemia (culprit lesion) within infarction zone. It has an important role in risk stratification after myocardial infarction, and indicates subsequent therapeutic decision making, in this case rescue percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). After PCI we followed the therapy effect by MPI, and we found practically normal perfusion with minimal zone of defect perfusion in the apex. Conclusion. Myocardial perfusion imaging has an important role in the initial evaluation and risk stratification of patients surviving myocardial infarction. It also plays a major role in guiding subsequent therapeutic decision making, and in monitoring the benefits of these therapeutic measures.

Background: Considering that contrast medium is excreted through the whole kidney in a similar manner to drug excretion, the use of raw estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) rather than body surface area (BSA)-normalized eGFR is thought to be more appropriate for evaluating the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). Methods: This study included 2,189 myocardial infarction patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the independent risk factors. We used receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves to compare the ratios of contrast volume (CV) to eGFR with and without BSA normalization in predicting CI-AKI. Results: The area under the curve (AUC) of the ROC curve for the model including all the significant variables such as diabetes mellitus, left ventricular ejection fraction, preprocedural glucose, and the CV/raw modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) eGFR ratio was 0.768 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.720-0.816; p < 0.001]. When the CV/raw MDRD eGFR ratio was used as a single risk value, the AUC of the ROC curve was 0.650 (95% CI, 0.590-0.711; p < 0.001). When the CV/MDRD eGFR ratio with BSA normalization ratio was used, the AUC of the ROC curve further decreased to 0.635 (95% CI, 0.574-0.696; p < 0.001). The difference between the two AUCs was significant (p = 0.002). Conclusions: Raw eGFR is a better predictor for CI-AKI than BSA-normalized eGFR.

Mục tiêu: Khảo sát sự biến đổi hình thái và chức năng thất trái của bệnh nhân nhồi máu cơ tim cấp ST chênh lên trước và sau can thiệp tại thời điểm 48 giờ và 3 tháng bằng siêu âm tim. Đối tượng nghiên cứu: Trong thời gian từ tháng 02/2020 đến 09/2020 chúng tôi đã tiến hành nghiên cứu trên 97 bệnh nhân bệnh nhồi máu cơ tim cấp ST chênh lên được can thiệp động mạch vành qua da. Phương pháp nghiên cứu: nghiên cứu tiến cứu quan sát. Kết quả: khối lượng cơ thất trái giảm từ 195,2 ± 65,8 gr xuống 170,2 ± 51,1 gr, thể tích thất trái cuối tâm trương giảm từ 105,2 ± 37,4 mm xuống 95,5 ± 41,3 mm, thể tích thất trái cuối tâm thu giảm từ 57,3 ± 45,2 mm xuống 49,8 ± 50,3 mm. Chức năng tâm thu thất trái (EF) sau 3 tháng can thiệp động mạch vành qua da của nhóm EF ≤ 45 % tăng lên đáng kể từ 39,3 ± 11,2 % lên 45,85 ± 7,56 %, (p < 0,05), ngược lại nhóm EF > 45 % cũng có sự biến đổi từ 57,7 ± 14,4% lên 60,1 ± 13,3 %, (p > 0,05). Kết luận: Sau can thiệp động mạch vành qua da ở thời điểm 3 tháng, khối lượng cơ thất trái, thể tích thất trái cuối tâm thu và cuối tâm trương có sự thay đổi đáng kể. Chức năng tâm thu thất trái (EF) sau 3 tháng can thiệp động mạch vành qua da nhóm EF ≤ 45 % tăng lên có ý nghĩa thống kê. ABSTRACT EVALUATION OF HEART FAILURE IN ST - ELEVATED MYOCADIAL INFARCTION BEFORE AND AFTER PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION Objectives: Assess the function of left ventricle in ST elevation myocardial infarction before, 48 - hour and 3 - month after primary percutaneous coronary intervention by cardiac ultrasound. Patients: 97 patients who underwent PCI for ST elevated myocardial infarction from 02/2021 to 09/2020. Methods: Prospective observational study. Results: Left ventricular mass index decreased from 195.2 ± 65.8 gr/m2 to 170.2 ± 51.1 gr/m2, end - diastolic left ventricular volume decreased from 105.2 ± 37.4 mm to 95.5 ± 41.3 mm. End systolic volume decreased from 57.3 ± 45.2 mm to 49.8 ± 50.3 mm. Ejection fraction 3 month after the intervention of the EF ≤ 45 % group significantly increased from 39.3 ± 11.2 % to 45.85 ± 7.56 % (p < 0.05). In contrast, there were a rise of the ejection fraction among the EF > 45% group from 57.7 ± 14.4% to 60.1 ± 13.3 % (p > 0.05). Conclusion: 3 month after PCI, left ventricular mass, end - systolic and diastolic volume changed remarkably. The ejection fraction of EF ≤ 45 % group increased with a statical significance. Keywords: PCI, cardiac ultrasonography, ejection fraction, left ventricular mass, end systolic volume end diastolic volume.

Anterior Wall Myocardial Infarction

Background: Late revascularization following a myocardial infarction has questionable clinical benefit. Methods: We studied 13 patients with anterior wall myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention within 2 weeks of the primary event, by quantitative analysis of 2-dimensional echocardiographic images. Endocardial segmentations of the left ventricular (LV) endocardium from the 4-chamber views were studied over time to establish cumulative wall displacements (CWDs) throughout the cardiac cycle. Results: Left ventricular end-systolic volume decreased to 42 ± 8 mL/body surface area ( P = .034) and LV ejection fraction improved to 52% ± 7% ( P = .04). Analysis of LV endocardial CWD demonstrated significant improvements in mid-systolic to late-systolic phases in the apical LV segments, from 3.5 ± 0.32 to 5.89 ± 0.43 mm ( P = .019). Improvements in CWD were also observed in the late-diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle, from 1.50 ± 0.42 to 1.76 ± 0.52 mm ( P = .04). Conclusions: In our pilot patient cohort, following late establishment of infarct-related artery patency following an anterior wall myocardial infarction, regional improvements were noted in the LV apical segments during systole and late diastole.
