Automated assessment of myocardial viability after acute myocardial infarction by global longitudinal peak strain on low-dose dobutamine stress echocardiography.
BACKGROUND Low-dose dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) assesses myocardial viability at the early stage of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but its assessment is subjective and variable. Automated function image (AFI) determines global longitudinal peak strain (GLPS) based on tissue tracking technique. The ability of GLPS obtained by AFI during dobutamine stress to assess myocardial via...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of left ventricular function during contrast-enhanced dobutamine stress echocardiography predicts future cardiac events in diabetic patients.
BACKGROUND Non-invasive diagnosis and risk stratification of coronary artery disease are important for the selection and optimization of therapeutic interventions in diabetic patients, which may improve survival. The aim of this study was to determine the incremental value of contrast-enhanced dobutamine stress echocardiography (CE-DSE) for risk stratification. METHODS AND RESULTS CE-DSE was ...
متن کاملPre-ejection tissue-Doppler velocity changes during low dose dobutamine stress predict segmental myocardial viability.
INTRODUCTION We tested the hypothesis that low dose dobutamine stress echocardiography (LDDSE) combined with tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) can be used for the quantitative assessment of the content of viable myocardium. METHODS Forty-one patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction < or =40%), already scheduled for revascularisation, underwent echoc...
متن کاملChronic dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibition with sitagliptin is associated with sustained protection against ischemic left ventricular dysfunction in a pilot study of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND The incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1, promotes myocardial glucose uptake and may improve myocardial tolerance to ischemia. Endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36) is augmented by pharmacological inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4. We investigated whether chronic dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibition by sitagliptin protected against ischemic left ventricular dysfunction durin...
متن کاملCARDIOVASCULAR MEDICINE Early prediction of improvement in ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction using low dose dobutamine echocardiography
Objective: To evaluate the relation between changes in ejection fraction during the first three months after acute myocardial infarction and myocardial viability. Patients: Myocardial viability was assessed using low dose dobutamine echocardiography in 107 patients at mean (SD) 3 (1) days after acute myocardial infarction. Cross sectional echocardiography was repeated three months later. Left v...
