Abstract
V originále
Background: The aim of our study was to compare the effect of interventricular (VV) delay optimisation in CRT recipients on the basis of systolic dyssynchrony index (SDI) derived from the three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) versus QRS width assessment on left ventricle volume reduction at the 12-month follow-up. Methods: We included 63 patients with recently implanted CRT in this randomised, open-label trial. Patients were randomised to VV delay optimisation according to QRS complex width measurement in group 1 (n = 31) to obtain the narrowest QRS complex and SDI in group 2 (n = 32) to achieve its lowest possible value. We evaluated left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESv), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and SDI by 3DE before CRT implantation and at a 12-month follow-up in all the patients. We also obtained the New York Heart Association functional class, the 6-minute walk test, the quality of life questionnaire and the level of NT-proBNP. Results: The number of volumetric responders was similar in both groups (17 vs. 20, P = 0.786). There were also no significant differences in the reduction of LVESv (-41 +/- 55 mL vs. - 61 +/- 51 mL, P = 0.111), improvement in LVEF (+10.1 +/- 10.6% vs. + 13.0 +/- 9.9%, P = 0.213) or differences in clinical outcomes between both groups at the 12-month follow-up. Conclusion: CRT optimisation of interventricular delay using SDI compared with QRS width assessment did not reveal any significant difference in terms of volumetric and clinical response at the 12-month follow-up.
