Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristic of the T peak-end interval (Tpe) in dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM) patients with heart failure and its significance in evaluation of global dispersion of ventricular repolarization.MethodsFifty-three inpatients were enrolled in this study,which included 28patients with DCM and heart failure (DCM group),and 25 patients with supraventricular tachycardia and without structural heart disease (control group).The Tpe and the dispersion of QT interval (QTd) from the 12-lead surface electrocardiogram(ECG) were acquired and measured,and consequently the corrected numerals of the average of Tpe (Tpe-AVEC),the maximal Tpe (Tpe-MAXC) were acquired.ResultsThe levels of Tpe-AVEC,Tpe-MAXC and QTd in DCM group were significantly higher than those in control group [ ( 106.31 ±26.34) ms vs.(82.72 ± 10.01 ) ms,(234.05 ± 69.75) ms vs.( 119.15 ± 11.55 ) ms,( 119.17 ± 67.62) ms vs.( 39.74 ± 17.04 ) ms ] ( P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsThe global dispersion of ventricular repolarization is significantly increased in patients with DCM and heart failure.The Tpe-AVEC and Tpe-MAxc are recommended to be used for evaluating the dispersion of ventricular repolarization as the prognostic index in patients with DCM and heart failure.
