Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to clarify the utility of left atrial strain (LAS) for predicting pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), we studied 67 patients with heart disease using Doppler echocardiography. The patients were divided into 2 groups, into those with preserved left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF) (PEF) and those with reduced LVEF (REF). The maximum LAS and late LAS were obtained using speckle-tracking Echo. Results: Several variables were significantly correlated with PCWP. E/Late-LAS and E/Max LAS were selected as predictors of PCWP in the PEF and REF groups, respectively. In the PEF group, E/Late-LAS displayed sensitivity and specificity values of 86% and 77%, respectively, for predicting a PCWP of >15 mmHg, whereas in the REF group E/Max LAS demonstrated equivalent values of 75% and 100%, respectively. In conclusion, LAS appears to provide useful information for predicting PCWP although the optimal predictive variable differs between patients with PEF and REF.
