Abstract

We investigated whether global longitudinal strain (GLS) is a better predictor of clinical events after surgery for mitral regurgitation (MR) than conventional parameters. The optimal timing for surgery is guided by left ventricular (LV) dimension or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), even though normal LVEF can mask depressed LV systolic function in severe mitral MR. From 2006 to 2016, 506 patients (age 58.5 ± 13.7 years, 54.3% male) with severe primary MR who underwent mitral valve surgery were included. We measured GLS and global circumferential strain. Cardiac events included admission for worsening heart failure (HF), reoperation for failure of MV surgery, and cardiac death. During a median follow-up period of 3.5 years, 56 (11.1%) patients died, 41 (8.1%) were hospitalized for HF, and 10 (2.0%) underwent reoperation. In univariate analysis, LVEF, atrial fibrillation, left atrial dimension, age, previous ischemia, concomitant coronary artery bypass graft, and both GLS and global circumferential strain were predictive of cardiac events. On multivariate Cox models, age (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.429, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.116 to 1.831; p = 0.005), left atrial dimension (HR: 1.034, 95% CI: 1.006 to 1.063; p = 0.0...Continue Reading

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Atrial Filbrillation

Atrial fibrillation refers to the abnormal heart rhythm characterized by rapid and irregular beating of the atria. Here is the latest research.
