Abstract-In the past, an adverse prognostic significance of an altered left ventricular geometry in essential hypertension has been demonstrated. There are no data on the prognostic significance of an altered cardiac structure during pregnancy. The present study was designed to evaluate the prognostic impact on the outcome of pregnancy of an altered geometry of the left ventricle in mild gestational hypertension. One hundred forty-eight consecutive, pregnant, mild gestational hypertensive women (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, 140 to 150 mm Hg and 90 to 99 mm Hg, respectively) were included in the study. Patients were monitored until term to detect subsequent fetal and/or maternal adverse outcomes (preeclampsia, preterm delivery, abruptio placentae, other maternal medical problems, fetal distress, neonatal low birth weight, admittance to neonatal intensive care unit

“…According to the criteria of the American Society of Echocardiography, 10 the following parameters were obtained, each as an average of at least three measurements: left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), interventricular septum thickness (IST), posterior wall thickness (PWT), left atrial diameter (LAD), and ejection fraction (EF). Left ventricular mass was calculated using the Penn convention criteria 11 and divided by the body surface area to obtain the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) in grams per square meter (g/m 2 ). LVH was diagnosed if LVMI exceeded 110 g/m 2 in women and 130 g/m 2 in men.…”

“…Left ventricular mass was determined using the method of Devereux, and EF was calculated by Simpson biplane method of disks. 8 For each image, 2 to 3 cardiac cycles were acquired at a frame rate of 45 to 50 Hz. Images were stored and transferred to a computer for off-line VVI analysis.…”

Objectives: Velocity vector imaging allows quantitation of myocardial strain and strain rate from 2-dimensional images based on speckle tracking echocardiography. The aim of this study was to analyze the changes in myocardial strain and strain rate patterns in patients with end-stage renal disease and renal transplant recipients. Materials and Methods: We studied 33 patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis (19 men; mean age, 36 ± 8 y), 24 renal transplant recipients with functional grafts (21 men; mean age, 36 ± 7 y) and 26 age-and sex-matched control subjects. Longitudinal peak systolic strain and strain rate for basal, mid, and apical segments of the left ventricular wall were determined by velocity vector imaging from apical 4-and 2-chamber views. The average longitudinal strain and strain rate for the left ventricle were noted. From short-axis views at the level of papillary muscles, average circumferential, and radial strain, and strain rate were assessed. Results: Mean heart rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressure during imaging were similar between the groups. Longitudinal peak systolic strain and strain rate at basal and mid-segments of the lateral wall were significantly higher in renal transplant recipients and control groups than endstage renal disease patients. Average longitudinal systolic strain from the 4-chamber view was highest in control subjects (-14.5% ± 2.9%) and was higher in renal transplant recipients (-12.5% ± 3.0%) than end-stage renal disease patients (-10.2% ± 1.6%; P ≤ .001). Radial and circumferential strain and strain rate at the level of the papillary muscle were lower in patients with end-stage renal disease than other groups. Conclusions: Differences in myocardial function in patients with end-stage renal disease, renal transplant recipients, and normal controls can be quantified by strain imaging. Myocardial function is improved in renal transplant recipients compared with end-stage renal disease patients.
