Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) in detecting left ventricular regional wall motion abnormality (RWMA) in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) by contrast with coronary angiography (CAG).Methods Totally 68 cases of NSTEMI patients (NSTEMI group)and 50 cases of normal peoples (normal group)were collected.2DE dynamic image and CAG results were comparatively analyzed in two groups.Left ventricular RWMA of all patients were observed through multi-section dynamic images by 2 experienced echocardiographic physicians.Left ventricular wall motion abnormalities were determined according to the 16 segment method of the American Society of echocardiography (ASE).2DE-RWMA was positive if there were one or more segments of motion abnormalities.All NSTEMI patients underwent CAG 2 days after 2DE examination,CAG was positive if the degree of coronary artery stenosis was more than 50％.Results In 68 NSTEMI patients,66 cases were CAG positive and 2 cases were negative,35 cases were 2DE-RWMA positive and 33 cases were negative.Taking CAG as a gold standard,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive values of 2DE-RWMA in diagnosis of NSTEMI were 51.52％ (34/66),50.00 ％ (1/2),51.47％ (35/68),97.14％ (34/35),3.03 ％ (1/33).Compared with the 2DE-RWMA negative patients,the rate of three branches of coronary artery stenosis in 2DE-RWMA positive patients was higher (62.85％ vs 39.39％,P＜0.05),the degree of coronary artery stenosis that reached 90％-99％ was higher (68.57％ vs 48.48％,P＜0.05).Conclusion The sensitivity of 2DE is low of NSTEMI in detecting the left ventricle RWMA.The degree of coronary artery stenosis is probably serious if 2DE-RWMA is positive,which is helpful for preliminary clinical judgment.
