Deceleration time in ischemic cardiomyopathy: relation to echocardiographic and scintigraphic indices of myocardial viability and functional recovery after revascularization.
BACKGROUND In patients with heart failure secondary to left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction, a short deceleration time (DT) successfully predicts clinical outcome. The impact of myocardial viability and revascularization on the mitral inflow velocities, however, is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Forty patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy underwent (201)Tl scintigraphy (SPECT) and 2D, Dop...
متن کاملIschemic Cardiomyopathy in Humans
Background Ischemic cardiomyopathy is characterized by myocyte loss, reactive cellular hypertrophy, and ventricular scarring. However, the relative contribution of these tissue and cellular processes to late failure remains to be determined. Methods and Results Ten hearts were obtained from individuals undergoing cardiac transplantation as a result of chronic coronary artery disease in its term...
متن کاملMultimodality Imaging in Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Cardiac multimodality (hybrid) imaging can be obtained from a variety of techniques, such as nuclear medicine with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET), or radiology with multislice computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) and echography. They are typically combined in a side-by-side or fusion mode in order to provide functional and ...
متن کاملVentricular Remodeling In Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Heart failure in the setting of reduced systolic pump function, if left untreated, is characterized by progressive ventricular dilation and dysfunction. Many of the major advances in pharmacologic treatments for heart failure achieved over the last two decades came with the recognition that this process, referred to as ventricular remodeling, results from abnormal mechanical stress on the myoca...
متن کاملserum zinc level in dilated and ischemic cardiomyopathy
background: serum trace element alteration has been reported in dilated and ischemic cardiomyopathy. the reports were controversial. we have studied serum zinc level in cardiomyopathy patients in northern province of mazandaran and compared them with healthy volunteers. methods: serum zinc level was measured in 30 ischemic and 18 dilated cardiomyopathy patients against 27 healthy volunteers. it...
