Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the clinical application of two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging in assessing the left ventricular regional and global systolic strain in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).

Methods

This study retrospectively analyzed 82 NSTEMI patients in Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2011 to 2015 as NSTEMI group and 58 healthy people served as the control group. The two-dimensional dynamic images of apical planes in four chamber, two chamber and three chamber were acquired by speckle tracking imaging; the values of left ventricular regional and global strain were obtained. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was calculated by the modified Simpson’s rule.

Results

LVEF of the NSTEMI group showed no significant difference compared with the control group [(57 ± 9)% vs. (59 ± 7)%, t = 1.651, P = 0.101]. However, compared with the control group, the peak systolic longitudinal strains of each segment at apical, middle and basal levels and left ventricular global strain in the NSTEMI group decreased significantly [(-13 ± 5)% vs. (-18 ± 4)%,(-14 ± 4)% vs. (-19 ± 3)%, (-14 ± 5)% vs. (-18 ± 4)%, (-14 ± 4)% vs. (-18 ± 3)%; t=6.533, 7.738, 5.025, 7.761; all P < 0.001].

Conclusion

Two dimensional speckle tracking imaging can assess left ventricular longitudinal strains in patients with NSTEMI, and accurately evaluate the left ventricular regional and global systolic function at the early stage.
