Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis (CAS)detected by ultrasonography and ECG abnormality and correlation between CAS and blood pressure in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods:A total of 389 CHD patients were divided into CAS group (n=213)and no CAS group (n=176).ECG abnormalities were compared between two groups,and ECG and blood pressure were compared among patients with different degrees of CAS in CAS group.Results:Compared with no CAS group,there were significant rise in constituent ratios of atrial fibrillation,Ⅱ~Ⅲ°atrioventricular block,total lead number of ST segment de-pression,and of abnormal T wave,ST segment deviation complicated abnormal T wave and angina pectoris compli-cated ST segment depression in CAS group (P <0.05~<0.01).Along with CAS grade increased (grade I~ grade IV),there were gradual rise in percentages of atrial fibrillation (8.33% vs.21.33% vs.31.03% vs.45.00%),to-tal lead number of ST segment depression (17.64% vs.27.22% vs.37.07% vs.52.08%),total lead number of ab-normal T wave (5.00% vs.6.56% vs.10.34% vs.22.08%)and ST segment deviation complicated abnormal T wave (26.67% vs.37.33% vs.50.00% vs.60.00%),P <0.05 or <0.01. There were no significant difference in diastolic blood pressure (DBP)between no CAS group and CAS group,but systolic blood pressure (SBP)and pulse pressure (PP)of CAS patients were significantly higher than those of no CAS patients,and they gradually elevated along with CAS severity increased (P <0.05~<0.01).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that CAS was signifi-cant positively correlated with SBP and PP (r =2.064,1.348,P <0.01 both).Conclusion:The incidence rate of abnormal ECG in CHD patients complicated CAS is higher than that of CHD patients without CAS;and CAS is pos-itively correlated with blood pressure.Therefore,carotid ultrasonography can better reflect CHD patients′condition.
