Abstract:
The echocardiographic results obtained from normal group(910 cases), borderline hypertention group(78 cases), define hypertension group(182 cases) and hypertensive heart disease group(55 cases) in Heart Center, Paik Hospital, Inje Medical College, Pusan, Korea between September 1985, were as followings; 1) LVDeD, 5.94+/-1.07cm in hypertensive heart disease group was significantly increased compared with 4.93+/-0.64cm in normal group, 4.92+/-0.73cm in borderline hypertension group and 4.90+/-0.64cm in define hypertension group. LVSeD, 4.86+/-0.98cm in hypertensive heart disease group was significantly increased compared with 3.24+/-0.58cm in normal group, 3.21+/-0.52cm in definite hypertension group. 2) LVDeV/s, 180.26+/-84.76ml/m2 in hypertensive heart disease group was significantly increased compared with 86.13+/-37.34ml/m2 in normal group, 86.26+/-41.02ml/m2 in borderline hypertension group and 83.78+/-30.86ml/m2 in definite hypertension group, and LVSeV/S, 97.51+/-55.67ml/m2 in hypertensive heart disease group was significantly increased compared with 25.28+/-13.25ml/m2 in normal group, 23.68+/-14.62ml/m2 in borderline hypertension group and 24.02+/-14.36ml/m2 in definite hypertension group. 3) There was no significant differance of SV/S, between 61.50+/-26.02ml/m2 in normal, 63.98+/-30.86ml/m2 in borderline, 63.06+/-22.96ml/m2 in definite hypertension group and 61.82+/-30.67ml/m2 in hypertesive heart disease group. E.F. 44.06+/-9.94% in hypertensive heart disease group was significantly reduced comparing with 71.08+/-8.89% in normal group, while 74.35+/-8.26% in borderline and 73.28+/-8.49% in definite hypertensive was significantly increased. F.S., 17.02+/-5.18% in hypertensive heart disease group was significantly reduced comparing with 34.44+/-6.81% in normal, while 35.64+/-7.62% in borderline and 36.87+/-7.26% in definite hypertension group was significantly increased. 4) VSTh, 1.24+/-0.32cm in hypertensive heart disease group, 1.17+/-0.12cm in definite hypertension group and 1.16+/-0.41cm in borderline hypertension group are significantly increased comparing with 0.99+/-0.21cm in normal group. LVPWTh, 1.01+/-0.27cm in hypertensive heart disease group and 0.90+/-0.21cm in definite hypertension group was significantly increased comparing with 0.79+/-0.16cm in normal group. 5) VSTh was increased in 13.3% of borderline hypertension group, 32.8% of definite hypertension group and 31.6% of hypertensive heart disease group. LVPWTh was increased in 4.4% of borderline hypertensive group, 26.9% of definite hypertension group and 30.2% of hypertensive heart disease group. Symmetrical septal hypertrophy was noted in 5.1% of borderline hypertension group, 20.1% of definite hypertension group and 32.1% of hypertensive heart disease group. Total septal or left ventricular posteior wall hypertrophy was noted in 17(21.8%) of 78 borderline hypertension group, 154(89.8%) of definite hypertension group and 51(93.9%) of 55 hypertensive heart disease group.
