Electrocardiographic measures of myocardial function and necrosis.
Contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance (CECMR) imaging is becoming accepted as a reference “gold standard” for noninvasive estimation of myocardial infarct (MI) size against which other infarct sizing techniques, such as the electrocardiogram (ECG), are judged (1–3). The advantages of CE-CMR are obvious (4). However, as emphasized in an editorial by Engblom et al. (5), an essential step b...
متن کاملPathophysiology of Cardiogenic Shock Quantification of Myocardial Necrosis , Clinical , Pathologic and Electrocardiographic Correlations
Clinical and pathologic data were correlated in 22 patients with cardiogenic shock and 10 "control" patients who died suddenly after infarction without shock. A pathologic technique of ventricular mapping allowed quantification of recent as well as old infarction. Total left ventricular (LV) damage averaged 51% (range 35-68%) in the shock patients and 23% (range 14-31%) in the control group. Sh...
متن کاملDiffuse Myocardial Fibrosis Reduces Electrocardiographic Voltage Measures of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Independent of Left Ventricular Mass
BACKGROUND Myocardial fibrosis quantified by myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV) and left ventricular mass (LVM) index (LVMI) measured by cardiovascular magnetic resonance might represent independent and opposing contributors to ECG voltage measures of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Diffuse myocardial fibrosis can occur in LVH and interfere with ECG voltage measures. This phenom...
متن کاملEvaluation of myocardial perfusion and function after kidney transplantation by Gated SPECT myocardial perfusion scintigraphy
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of successful kidney transplantation (KT) on myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function by both qualitative (visual) interpretation and semiquantitative parameters, using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with gated-single photon emission computed tomography (gated-SPECT) in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease. ...
متن کاملCoronary artery reperfusion. I. Early effects on local myocardial function and the extent of myocardial necrosis.
The effects of coronary artery reperfusion 3 hr after coronary occlusion on contractile function and the development of myocardial damage at 24 hr was studied experimentally. In 14 control and 6 reperfused dogs, relationships between epicardial ST segment elevation 15 min after coronary occlusion and myocardial creatine phosphokinase activity (CPK) and histologic appearance 24 hr later were exa...
