Background: To evaluate the effects of baseline left ventricular restrictive filling pattern (RFP; E/A>2) in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients on prognosis. Methods: Patient data was retrospectively analyzed over a period of 4.5 years to determine the effect of Echocardiographic factors on survival and re-admission for heart failure. Results: There were 102 ICM patients who had baseline RFP. We identified two sub-groups based on geometric phenotypes of left ventricular eccentric remodeling and dilated remodeling based on the relative wall thickness (RWT >0.34 or <0.34). The patients with preserved RWT had significantly more dilated ventricles ( LVIDd and LVIDs), greater pulmonary artery systolic pressures (PASP), greater diatolic dysfunction (E/A) and less left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF); p<0.001. The number of deaths was higher in the reduced RWT patients, as were the number of re-admissions, although the time to survival and time to re-admission was not significant. Conclusions: In this pilot study on ICM patients in advanced heart failure with baseline RFP, the presence of preserved RWT indicative of eccentric remodelling demonstrated a better clinical outcome, leading to a hypothesis that the eccentric remodelling LV phenotype might benefit with SVR.
