Hypertensive cardiac hypertrophy of 20 patients was classified as inappropriate hypertrophy (HH-I) and appropriate hypertrophy (HH-II) according to their end-systolic wall stress, as measured by echocardiography. The differences in systolic and diastolic performances among the HH-I and HH-II subjects and 10 normal controls (NC) before and during isoproterenol infusion were investigated. Eight patients had subnormal end-systolic wall stress (inappropriate hypertrophy) and 12, normal end-systolic wall stress (appropriate hypertrophy). Before isoproterenol infusion, normalized peak rate of a change in left ventricular diameter during systole was significantly greater in HH-I (3.5 +/- 0.8/s) than in NC (2.3 +/- 0.5/s) and HH-II (2.6 +/- 0.6/s) (p less than 0.01 and p less than 0.005), but there was no significant difference between HH-II and NC. There was no significant difference in normalized peak rate of a change of left ventricular diameter during the rapid filling phase among the three groups (4.5 +/- 1.2/s in HH-I, 4.0 +/- 1.6/s in HH-II, and 4.2 +/- 0.8/s in NC). During isoproterenol infusion, normalized peak rate of a change of left ventricular diameter during systole was significantly greater in HH-I (7.0 +/- 1.9/s) than in HH-II (4.8 +/- 1.7/s) and NC (4.8 +/- 0.8/s) (p less than 0.05 and p less than 0.01, respectively), but there was no significant difference between HH-II and NC. Normalized peak rate of a change of left ventricular diameter during rapid filling was significantly less in HH-II (4.8 +/- 1.7/s) than in HH-I (7.3 +/- 1.3/s) and NC (6.5 +/- 0.8/s) (p less than 0.005 and p less than 0.005, respectively), but there was no significant difference between HH-I and NC. These results suggest that hypertensive patients with inappropriate hypertrophy have relatively diminished diastolic velocity (supernormal systolic velocity and normal diastolic velocity) before and during isoproterenol infusion, and that hypertensive patients with appropriate hypertrophy have absolutely diminished diastolic velocity during isoproterenol infusion, in spite of normal diastolic velocity before the infusion.
