Myocardial viability and survival in ischemic left ventricular dysfunction.
BACKGROUND The assessment of myocardial viability has been used to identify patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction in whom coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) will provide a survival benefit. However, the efficacy of this approach is uncertain. METHODS In a substudy of patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction who were enrolled i...
متن کاملPrognostic value of myocardial ischemia and viability in patients with chronic left ventricular ischemic dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that thallium scintigraphy and dobutamine echocardiography were accurate, noninvasive ways of predicting contractile recovery after revascularization in patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. However, the prognostic impact of such methods remains uncertain. METHODS AND RESULTS We prospectively studied 137 consecutive patients with coronary disease ...
متن کاملMyocardial viability and prognosis in patients with ischemic left ventricular dysfunction.
Left ventricular (LV) function is among the most important determinants of prognosis in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). It is well established that patients with impaired LV systolic function represent a high risk group with significantly greater annual mortality than those with preserved LV function, and that survival rates decline in proportion to the severity of LV dysfunction (...
متن کاملHigh myocardial 18F-FDG uptake after chemotherapy in the presence of left ventricular dysfunction as well as 3-month later with no left ventricular dysfunction
Diffusely increased glucose metabolic activity in the right and left ventricles using 2-deoxy-2-(F-18) fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDGPET/CT) and global left ventricular hypokinesia at echocardiography can be evident in acute myocarditis. But, there has been no case report that the ventricular 18F-FDGuptake remains unchanged even ...
متن کاملMyocardial viability during dobutamine echocardiography predicts survival in patients with coronary artery disease and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess whether the presence or absence of myocardial viability during dobutamine echocardiography (DE) predicts survival in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. BACKGROUND In patients with CAD, the presence of myocardial viability during DE identifies viable myocardium and predicts recovery of LV ...
