Correlation of angiographic estimates of myocardial infarct size and accumulated release of creatine kinase MB isoenzyme in man.

چکیده
Accumulated creatine kinase MB isoenzyme release (sigma CK-MB) during acute myocardial infarction was correlated with biplane left ventricular (LV) angiographic estimates of percent abnormally contracting segment (%ACS) and ejection fraction (EF) in 35 patients who underwent diagnostic angiography at a mean of 33 +/- 4 days post myocardial infarction (MI). Of the 35 patients, 18 had no evidence of prior MI and their sigma CK-MB showed good correlation with %ACS (r = 0.84) and with EF (r = - 0.78). An additional two patients with first (inferior) infarct secondary to stenosis of the right coronary artery proximal to the origin of the right ventricular arterial blood supply had disproportionately large sigma CK-MB, suggesting a combination of LV and RV necrosis. In the 15 patients with prior infarct, there was no significant correlation between sigma CK-MB and %ACS or EF. However, in the subgroup of patients with anterior MI, %ACS correlated with sigma CK-MB, both in patients with no prior MI (r = 0.88, N = 12) and in patients with prior MI (r = 0.69, N = 9). These independent angiographic and enzymatic data suggest that enzymatic infarct size estimates utilizing accumulated CK-MB release may be a valid and reliable clinical measure for assessing the extent of LV necrosis in the setting of acute anterior myocardial infarction. However, limitations may exists in certain cases of inferior MI, probably because of concomitant right and left ventricle necrosis.

Creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme release (CK-MB-g-Eq) was correlated with left ventricular (LV) radionuclide gated blood pool wall motion estimates of percent abnormally contracting regions (%ACR), ejection fraction (EF) and quantitative thallium-201 (Tl-201) LV perfusion scintigraphy (Tl-201 perfusion index) during evolving myocardial infarction (MI). Of the 35 patients, 14 had no evidence of eith...

The quantitative relations between serum creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) release and the final infarct size estimated by myocardial emission computed tomography with thallium-201 was assessed in 37 patients with a first acute transmural myocardial infarction who underwent intracoronary thrombolysis using urokinase 4.6 +/- 1.9 hours after the onset of symptoms. Serial CK-MB determinations w...

Infarct size was estimated by cumulative creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CKMB-r) release and by technetium 99m stannous pyrophosphate (TcPYP) scintigraphy in 27 patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction. In eight patients, scintigraphy showed a central area of reduced tracer uptake surrounded by a peripheral rim of increased TcPYP accumulation ("doughnut" pattern). This appearance occurr...

Emission computed tomography with technetium-99m pyrophosphate was used to delineate the location and estimate the size of myocardial infarcts in 20 patients with documented acute myocardial infarction. Tomography was performed after planar imaging within 2-5 days after the onset of infarction. A series of transaxial, frontal, and sagittal tomograms were reconstructed from 32 views imaged from ...

We evaluated emission computed tomography (ECT) for thallium-201 (201TI) myocardial imaging in estimating infarct size (IS). In 18 patients in whom IS was estimated enzymatically at the time of the acute episode, planar 201TI perfusion scintigraphy and ECT with a rotating gamma camera were performed 4 weeks after the first myocardial infarction. From the size of 201TI perfusion defects, the inf...
