“…Moreover, Antoni et al [23] demonstrated that a RV strain \22.1 % provided incremental value over clinical information, infarct characteristics and conventional RV function parameter to predict adverse outcome in post AMI patients. The absolute value of RV has been shown to be lower in patients with RVMI compared to those without RVMI [18,19]. RV dysfunction can be observed irrespective of the localization of MI.…”

To assess the pattern of right ventricular (RV) functional recovery in a cohort of patients with successful reperfusion of a first episode of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). Ninety-five revascularized AMI patients were prospectively included (56.8 ± 11.1 years, 48 inferior, 47 anterior). RV function was assessed by echocardiography and CMR within the initial 72 h and 6 months later. A RV global strain was calculated while averaging strain values from septal, lateral and inferior walls. At the acute phase, RVEFCMR was lower in inferior than in anterior AMI patients (52.5 ± 6.8 vs. 56.0 ± 4.8, p = 0.006). Similarly, RV global, inferior and lateral strains were lower in inferior MI patients (p < 0.001 for all) whereas septal strain was not significantly different across groups. At 6 months, RVEFCMR and all strain parameters improved compared to baseline. Improvements were more substantial for patients with inferior than with anterior MI. RV parameters ultimately reached similar levels in the two groups at 6 months except for inferior strain which remained lower in patients with inferior MI (-24.5 ± 6.5 vs. -27.5 ± 5.4, p = 0.03). In low risk patients after AMI, RV function ultimately recovered over the 6 months of follow up. Higher levels of both initial impairment and subsequent recovery were observed for inferior MI. Although RV function was relatively preserved in these patients, RV strain analysis revealed a persistent impairment of RV inferior strain in patients with inferior MI, which may not be identified by RVEFCMR or conventional echocardiographic parameters.

“…Recently it was shown that strain and strain rate imaging is also useful for the evaluation of right ventricular (RV) function in pulmonary hypertension and RV diseases of different etiologies (RV infarction, arrhythmogenic RV dysplasia/cardiomyopathy) [48,[65][66][67][68][69][70].…”

“…The literature on the value of 12 leads exercise testing at late (4 weeks) RV function assessment in patients with inferior MI is scarce since investigators prefer to study echocardiography or MRI, the best methods for the diagnosis of RV dysfunction, undoubtedly more sensitive and more specific for these cases [6,[17][18][19].…”

Right Ventricular Strain and Strain Rate Properties in Patients with Right Ventricular Myocardial Infarction

Abstract: This study demonstrates that right ventricular strain and strain rate were lower in patients with left ventricular inferior wall myocardial infarction with, compared to without, right ventricular infarction.
