Popis: Background Severely reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF≤35%) is commonly seen in approximately 5% of the myocardial infarction (MI) survivors in its acute-phase, which is recognized as a risk factor of post-MI cardiac death. However, clinical impact of the progressively reduced LVEF in the chronic-phase after MI has not been clarified. Purpose To evaluate clinical impact of the progressively reduced LVEF in the chronic-phase after MI. Method We evaluated 1659 consecutive patients with acute MI by serial echocardiography. Primary outcome was severely reduced LVEF. And secondary outcome was all cause death and cardiac death. Result During follow-up (median: 1097 days), severely reduced LVEF newly developed in 8.6% of AMI survivors. These patients had significantly higher incidence of all cause death (20.7% vs. 4.4%, p35%. Severely reduced LVEF progressed in the chronic-phase associated with all cause death and cardiac death as well as those with severely reduced EF in the acute-phase. Figure 1 Conclusions Progressively reduced LVEF during chronic-phase occurred 8.6% per 10-year in MI survivors. Careful long-term follow-up after MI should be needed to identify possible candidate for the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.
