Popis: | Background— Left ventricular (LV) fibrosis is important for the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Calibrated integrated backscatter derived by 2D echocardiography quantifies myocardial ultrasound reflectivity, which may provide a surrogate of LV fibrosis. The aim of the study was first, to investigate the relation of myocardial ultrasound reflectivity assessed with calibrated integrated backscatter on CRT response, and second, to explore the “myocardial ultrasound reflectivity–CRT response” relation in patients with ischemic and nonischemic heart failure (HF). Methods and Results— One hundred fifty-nine patients with HF referred for CRT underwent an extensive echocardiographic evaluation at baseline and at 6-month follow-up. LV dyssynchrony was derived from speckle-tracking analysis. Calibrated integrated backscatter was obtained from the parasternal long-axis view. The mean value of calibrated integrated backscatter of the anteroseptal and posterior wall was used to estimate myocardial ultrasound reflectivity. CRT response was defined as reduction ≥15% of LV end-systolic volume. At baseline, LV dyssynchrony was significantly larger in responders as compared with nonresponders (188�96 ms versus 115�68 ms, P P 2 change=40, P Conclusions— Assessment of myocardial ultrasound reflectivity is important in the prediction of CRT response in ischemic and nonischemic patients. |
