The value of myocardial work in assessment of ventricular function in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Abstract Background To evaluate myocardial work using speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods Fifty patients with HCM and 50 normal controls were included. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was quantified using the bi-plan...

description Abstract Background To evaluate myocardial work using speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods Fifty patients with HCM and 50 normal controls were included. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was quantified using the bi-plane Simpson’s method. Myocardial work parameters, which included global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global waste work (GWW), and global work efficiency (GWE), were derived from the 2D strain-pressure loop. Results The patient group was older (49.19 ± 14.69 vs. 37.16 ± 7.49 years old) and had a higher body mass index (24.93 ± 3.67 vs. 23.26 ± 3.32 kg/m2) and systolic blood pressure (121.81 ± 16.50 vs. 115.30 ± 11.01 mmHg) (P < 0.05). The mean LVEF in patients was 51%, with 54% of patients had LVEF ≤ 50%. Compared to controls, GWI (946.42 ± 360.64 vs. 1639.72 ± 204.56 mmHg%), GCW (1176.94 ± 373.23 vs. 1960.16 ± 255.72 mmHg%), and GWE (83.96 ± 7.68 vs. 95.26 ± 1.98%) were significantly decreased, while GWW (158.17 ± 82.47 vs. 79.12 ± 40.26 mmHg%) was significantly increased (P < 0.05) in the patient group. In patients, GWE showed a trend of positive correlation with LVEF (r = 0.276, P = 0.06), while GWW had a trend of negative correlation with LVEF (r = − 0.241, P = 0.09). No correlation between myocardial work and LV diastolic function or QRS duration was observed. Maximal wall thickness significantly correlated with all the myocardial work parameters. Conclusions Assessing myocardial work adds useful information of LV function in patients with non-obstructive HCM.
