Abstract:
Purpose To explore the effect of speckle tracking imaging (STI) in early detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with hypertension (HT),and to intervene early to alleviate or delay the progression of CAD.This would provide theoretical evidence in controlling the development and improving the prognosis of CAD.Materials and Methods From January 2013 to April 2015,a total of 166 cases of hospitalized patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen and Jiangmen Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed,including HT group (n=42),CAD group (n=35),HT+CAD group (n=49) and control group (n=40).Conventional measurement and STI were used to analyze the conventional values and the 17 section peak strain value of the left ventricle.Results The total mean strain,average peak strain of lesion segment and minimum peak strain in CAD group and HT+CAD group were significantly lower (P＜0.05) compared to the control group.ROC analyses showed that the AUC for total mean strain,average peak strain of lesion segment and minimum peak strain value were 0.71,0.76,and 0.70,respectively.Using a combined cut-off of ≥-18％ of average peak strain of lesion segment,≥-19％ of total mean strain and ≥-6％ of minimum peak strain value,the performance of CHD diagnosis had a sensitivity of 91.3％ and a specificity of 83.5％.Conclusion Speckle tracking automatic function imaging can be used to quantitatively analyze abnormal left ventricular segmental wall movement.It improves the detection in hypertension patients with coronary artery disease.
