Left Atrial and Right Atrial Deformation in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease: A Velocity Vector Imaging-Based Study
BACKGROUND Impaired left ventricular (LV) function has been shown by strain rate (SR) imaging in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Our aim was to investigate global and regional, systolic and diastolic left atrial (LA) and right atrial (RA) longitudinal deformation in CAD using velocity vector imaging. METHODS Echocardiographic and velocity vector imaging studies were performed in ...
متن کاملLeft atrial mechanical functions in patients with anterior myocardial infarction: a velocity vector imaging-based study.
BACKGROUND The contribution of the left atrium (LA) to left ventricular (LV) function increases in myocardial infarction (MI). AIM To evaluate LA function by using volume measurements and a novel strain imaging method, namely velocity vector imaging (VVI), in patients with acute anterior MI. METHODS Twenty-four patients with previous anterior MI (aged 63.8 ± 4.2 years, 56% men) and 30 healt...
متن کاملLeft atrial mechanical functions in chronic primary mitral regurgitation patients: a velocity vector imaging-based study
INTRODUCTION Assessment of the left atrium (LA) mechanical function provides further information on the level of cardiac compensation. We aimed to evaluate LA function using a strain imaging method: velocity vector imaging (VVI) in chronic primary mitral regurgitation (MR). MATERIAL AND METHODS We recruited 48 patients with chronic, isolated, moderate to severe MR (54.70 ±15.35 years and 56% ...
متن کاملChanges in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging
OBJECTIVES Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics and clinical status in patients with HCM using Vector Velocity Imaging (VVI). METHODS VVI of the LA and LV was acquired from apical four- and t...
متن کاملevaluation of left atrial two-dimensional strain in patients with systolic heart failure using velocity vector imaging
background two-dimensional (2d) strain is a new reproducible technique for assessing regional myocardial function; however, its application for evaluation of left atrium (la) function is less studied. objectives we sought to assess la function in heart failure patients using velocity vector imaging (vvi). patients and methods thirty five patients (mean age: 43.34 ± 18.1 years, 59.3% male) with ...
