Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of color Doppler ultrasound combined with electrocardio-gram for right heart dys function in patients with pulmonary heart disease(PHD).Methods:A total of 100 PHD patients admitted in Dongcheng Branch of First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University between January 2020 and December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.According to results of 6min walking test(6MWT),pa-tients were divided into good right heart function group(n=64,≥350m)and right heart dysfunction group(n=36,<350m).The indexes of cardiac color ultrasound[isovolumic relaxation time(IVRT),isovolumetric contraction time(IVCT)and right ventricular Tei index],ECG[24h mean R-R interval standard deviation(SDNN),normal R-R interval standard deviation per 5min(SDANN)and the ratio of low frequency components to high frequency components(LF/HF)]were compared between two groups.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasound,ECG and their combination for right heart dys-function in PHD patients.Spearman correlation coefficient was used to analyze the association of color Doppler ul-trasound,ECG and their combination with right heart dysfunction in PHD patients.Results:Compared with those in good right heart function group,patients in right heart dysfunction group had significant higher IVRT[(120.64±14.08)ms vs.(97.87±10.93)ms],IVCT[(84.28±12.33)ms vs.(71.92±10.61)ms]and Tei index[(0.85±0.11)vs.(0.63±0.07)](P<0.001 all),and significant lower SDNN[(75.52±12.58)ms vs.(85.58±11.75)ms],SDANN[(63.86±10.92)ms vs.(76.75±11.71)ms]and LF/HF[(1.33±0.19)vs.(1.84±0.27)](P<0.001 all).ROC curve indicated that the AUC of color Doppler ultrasound combined ECG in diagnosing right heart dysfunction in PHD patients was 0.911(95%CI 0.838~0.959),which was significantly higher than those of color Doppler ultrasound[0.775(95%CI 0.681~0.853),Z=2.404,P=0.016]and ECG[0.688(95%CI 0.588~0.777),Z=3.968,P=0.001]alone.Spearman correlation analysis indicated that there was a significant positive correlation of color Doppler ultrasound(r=0.547),ECG(r=0.375)and their combination(r=0.810)with right heart dysfunction in PHD patients(P<0.001 all),and the correlation between combined detection and right heart dysfunction in PHD patients was significantly higher.Conclusion:Color Doppler ultrasound combined with ECG possesses high diagnostic performance for right heart dysfunction in PHD patients.
