| pubmed-article:18773996 | pubmed:abstractText | The aim was to study the prognostic value of left ventricular (LV) function using pulse-wave tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in an ordinary population with heart failure (HF). One hundred fifty-six patients hospitalized for HF and LV ejection fraction < or =40% were examined using conventional echocardiography and pulse-wave TDI for the assessment of longitudinal LV function. Mitral annular systolic and early diastolic (e') velocities were recorded from a mean of 4 annular sites from the apical 2- and 4-chamber views. Noninvasive LV filling pressure was calculated from the ratio between transmitral early inflow velocity (E) and e'. All patients were followed up for 2 years, and data from the National Registry of Deaths were collected. Mean LV ejection fraction was 24.7 +/- 7.2%. TDI recordings showed a mean mitral annular systolic velocity of 5.0 +/- 1.0 cm/s and e' velocity of 6.2 +/- 1.9 cm/s. E/e' ratio was 14.1 +/- 4.8. Thirty patients (19%) had atrial fibrillation. During follow-up, 27 patients (17%) died of a cardiovascular cause. Multivariate analysis showed that only E/e' ratio and age were predictors of cardiovascular mortality. A cut-off value for E/e' ratio >13 had sensitivity of 84% and specificity of 45% to identify patients who died within 2 years of cardiac reasons. In conclusion, in the acute stage of HF, E/e' ratio is a strong independent predictor of long-term cardiovascular mortality in an ordinary population with HF and systolic dysfunction. Systolic and diastolic velocities had no independent prognostic value. | lld:pubmed |
