Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of left ventricular(LV) vortex strength(VS) and distribution during selective cardiac pacing in a phases of cardiac cycle using vector flow mapping techniques ,and associate with LV mechanical performance ,so as to provide basic experimental database for optimizing the sites of the artificial cardiac pacing in clinic conditions .Methods Eight heathy open‐chest Beagle dog models were employed for selective right ventricular apical (RVAP ) ,left ventricular apical (LVAP) and lateral wall pacing (LVLP) .The standard two‐dimensional apical three views with color Doppler flow and dynamic two‐dimensional images were acquired consecutively in three cardiac cycles for further off‐line analysis ,conventional parameters were measured at same time .Results Compared with baseline ,LVSV ,LVEF ,LVCO and dp/dtmax were both reduced ,and the parameters obtained leftside cardiac pacing were lower than that of right ventricular pacing ( P < 0 0.5) ,there′s no significant difference in E/Vp .The vortex pattern ,distribution and vorticity at six typical phases induced by selective cardiac pacing were totally different from those at baseline with sinus rhythm ,and leftside pacing were worsen than RVAP ,the LVAP were most obvious .On multivariable regression analysis ,the VS during ES (VSES ) at baseline was independently related to late‐diastolic VS and longitudinal strain (R2 = 0 6.3 ,P < 0 0.01 and P=0 0.03 ,respectively) .Conclusions The selective cardiac pacing could induce intracardiac vortex changes and differ from that at baseline ,and the persistence of vortex from late diastole into ES is a haemodynamic measure of coupling between diastole and systole .
