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