Relationship between left ventricular diastolic dyssynchrony and systolic dyssynchrony in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy by single-cardiac real-time three-dimensional ultrasonography

The relationship between left ventricular diastolic and systolic dyssynchrony in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) was investigated by single-cardiac real-time three-dimensional ultrasonography. A total of 52 patients with HCM were selected in Jining No. 1 People's Hospital from July 2016 to June 2017. Additionally, a total of 52 healthy people were selected to serve as the control group. All participants received real-time two- and three-dimensional ultrasonography to evaluate left ventricular morphology, function and systolic and diastolic function. The relevant parameters included left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), end-systolic/diastolic sphericity index (ESSI/EDSI), systolic dyssynchrony index (SDI), diastolic dyssynchrony index (DDI), dispersion end systole (DISPES), diastolic dyssynchrony index-late (DDI-late) and dispersion end diastole (DISPED-late). The LVEF of observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group, while LVEDV, LVESV, E/A and E/Ea were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05); EDSI, DDI-late and DISPED-late were significantly higher in observation than in control group (P<0.05); ESSI, SDI and DISPES in observation were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05); The 16-segment time-volume curve of observation group was disordered without synchronization, while the curve of control group was regular and smooth with synchronization; Pearson's correlation analysis showed that SDI and DDI were positively correlated (P<0.05). In conclusion, three-dimensional ultrasonography can be used to effectively evaluate left ventricular diastolic and systolic dyssynchrony in HCM. The severity of diastolic is positively correlated with systolic dyssynchrony.
