Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the movement function of the left ventricular short-axis with parameters (velocity, acceleration and relatively force) measured with improved anatomical M-mode ultrasound. Methods Sixteen patients with myocardial ischemia coronary heart disease who had taken percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled. All patients were divided into two groups: group A, single major vascular stenosis (n=8);group B, more major vascular stenosis (n=8). M-mode curves of short-axis sections at mitral valve level, papillary level and apical level were recorded, then the peak myocardial velocities, acceleration and force of the systolic phase, early-diastole phase and end-diastole phase were measured at the post processing station. Results The variety ranges of average velocity and acceleration of the three levels during systolic phase were higher than that during diastole phase. The changing rate of velocity and acceleration in group B was higher than that in group A. Conclusion The new parameters that are measured and calculated with anatomical M-mode ultrasound can reflect the movement functions of coronary heart disease patients taken PCI.
