Abstract:
Objective To assess the impact of a single hemodialysis on the left ventricular systolic function of uremia patients with 3-dimensional ultrasound speckle tracking imaging (3D-STI).Methods Thirty-seven clinically stable outpatients with uremia undergoing hemodialysis were studied.The echocardiographic examinations were obtained in 30 minutes before and after homodialysis.Twenty nine normal subjects with age and sex matched were selected as control groups.Conventional ultrasound was recorded and then left ventricular mass index(LVMI) was calculated.The peak systolic mitral annular velocity S' was recorded by tissue Doppler imaging.3D-STI imaging were recorded from standard left ventricular apical 4-chamber views before and after a single hemodialysis.Left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV),left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),and left ventricular global longitudinal peak systolic strain (LVGLS),left ventricular global radial peak systolic strain (LVGRS),left ventricular global circumferential peak systolic strain (LVGCS),left ventricular global area peak systolic strain (LVGAS) were measured.The indicators of conventional ultrasound and 3D-STI were compared between the pre-hemodialysis group and the normal control group,and also between pre-and post-hemodialysis groups.Results ①Compared with the control group,the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDD),interventrieular septal thickness at diastole (IVSD),left ventricular posterior wall thickness at diastole(LVWPD),left atrial diameter(LAD) in the group before a single hemodialysis were significantly higher (P <0.05 for all).Meanwhile,the S' was significantly lower (P >0.05) and LVMI was significantly higher in the pre-hemodialysis group than the control group(P < 0.05).The LVDD,LAD,left atrial volume index(LAVI) were significantly lower in the post-hemodialysis group than that in the pre-hemodialysis group(P <0.05 for all).②Results of 3D-STI showed that the LVEF,LVGLS,LVGCS,LVGRS,LVGAS was significantly lower,however LVEDV,LVESV were higher in the pre-hemodialysis group compared with the control group (P < 0.05 for all).After a single hemodialysis,LVEDV,LVESV,LVGLS were significantly lower than before(P <0.05 for all),but LVEF,LVGRS,LVGCS,LVGAS were not significantly changed (P > 0.05 for all).Conclusions After a single hemodialysis,the whole systolic function of the left ventricular was not changed.but the left ventricular global longitudinal peak systolic strain was significantly lower.The parameter of LVGLS was sensitive to the change of preload and was volume-load dependent.The preload of the patients should be sufficiently considered when the LVGLS are measured in the patients with uremia undergoing hemodialysis.
