Subtle Right Ventricular Affection in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction, Echocardiographic Assessment

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The right ventricle (RV) has historically received less attention than its counterpart of the left side of the heart, yet there is a substantial body of evidence showing that RV size and function are perhaps equally important in predicting adverse outcomes in cardiovascular diseases. AIM: The aim of our work was to evaluate incidence and impact of right ventricular (RV) affection in patients with acute left ventricular myocardial infarction subjected to primary percutaneous coronary intervent… Show more

“…Mohamed et al [ 23 ] excluded patients with electrocardiographic evidence of RV infarction and enrolled 80 patients with anterior STEMI who were subjected to PPCI. RV functions were assessed using strain by speckle tracking, which revealed a significant relationship between RV affection and anterior STEMI, which was consistent with our findings.…”

“…6 S’ was used in three studies, with two using a cut-off of <15 cm/s 4,8 and one using <10 cm/s. 38 RV longitudinal strain was used in two studies (one study defined RVD as < -20.5% 41 and the other as < -19% 37 ). Other parameters used in single studies included RV size, RV/LV ratio, the presence of RV free wall hypokinesia, and the combination of a raised tricuspid regurgitant velocity (>2.7 m/s) and a shortened pulmonary artery acceleration time (<80 ms).…”

“…The isolated delayed mortality subgroup (7 studies, 8,31,35,36,37,38,42 n = 1029 excluding in hospital/prior to day 30 deaths) also demonstrated an increased risk of death with an OR 2.01 (95% CI 1.05-3.86, moderate heterogeneity Higgins I 2 46.8%) compared to the combined control group (figure 4B).…”
