Structured PICO

Does 3-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography predict microvascular obstruction and left ventricular remodeling in patients with STEMI treated by primary PCI?

P
Population
71 patients with a first ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary PCI within 24 hours, followed for 6 months to assess left ventricular remodeling.
E
Exposure
3-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) performed early after PCI
C
Comparator
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) assessment of microvascular obstruction (MVO)
O
Outcome
Microvascular obstruction (MVO) and left ventricular (LV) remodeling at 6 monthssurrogate

Main Result

Odds Ratio: 8.83 (95% CI 2.68–35.52)

p-value: p=0.0002

3D speckle tracking echocardiography parameters, specifically circumferential strain and area change ratio, are valuable predictors of microvascular obstruction and subsequent LV remodeling after STEMI.

Limitations

  • Transmural extent of infarct was assessed visually rather than quantitatively.
  • Segments assessed by STE did not completely correspond with those assessed by CMR.
  • Patients unable to undergo CMR or echocardiography within 1 week of PCI due to unstable conditions were excluded.

Cite This Study

Sugano et al. (2016) conducted an observational in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n=71). 3-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE) vs. 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) was evaluated on Left ventricular remodeling at 6 months (predicted by Global 3D-CS > -23%) (OR 8.83, 95% CI 2.68-35.52, p=0.0002). Global 3-dimensional circumferential strain > -23% significantly predicted left ventricular remodeling at 6 months following primary PCI for STEMI (OR 8.83).
