摘要
目的:探讨二维斑点追踪技术测定肺高血压(简称肺高压)患者的三尖瓣环位移(tricuspid annular displacement,TAD)在评估右心室收缩功能方面的临床应用价值。方法:将经胸超声诊断为肺高压的患者共61例分为3个亚组:Ⅰ组(可疑肺高压,n=21),Ⅱ组(肯定肺高压,n=20),Ⅲ组(重度肺高压,n=20)。另选35例年龄相匹配的健康志愿者作对照组。用PhillipSonos iE33超声仪,取心尖四腔观先后采集二维(2D)及实时三维(real-time three-dimension,RT3D)图像,然后将2D图像输入QLAB6.2工作站获取三尖瓣环中点收缩期位移等参数;将RT3D图像输入TomTec工作站,用四维右心室功能分析(4DRVF)软件计算右心室射血分数(RVEF)。结果:TAD各测值与肺动脉收缩压(PASP)中度相关,与3D-RVEF高度相关。肺高压患者TAD各测值均显著低于对照组,各个亚组间TAD各测值比较差异也有统计学意义。TAD在观察者间及观察者内的差异范围分别为(0.05±1.75)mm及(-0.15±1.09)mm。结论:用二维斑点追踪显像技术测定TAD具有快速、准确及重复性好等特点,TAD能客观反映肺高压患者的右心室收缩功能。
Objective:To evaluate the value of tricuspid annular displacement (TAD), based on two-dimensional (2D) speckle tracking imaging, in the assessment of right ventricular (RV) systolic function in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Methods: Sixty-one patients with PH, aged (49.14 ± 17.66) years, were divided into 3 subgroups according to the latest guidelines on standards of diagnosing PH by echocardiography: Group 1 (suspicious PH, n= 21), Group 2 (definite PH, n = 20) and group 3(severe PH, n= 20). They were compared with 35 age-matched [(47.51 ± 12. 19) years] healthy volunteers. 2D and real-time three-dimensional (3D) imaging (Philips iE33, at apical four-chamber view) were obtained in all patients. The parameters of TAD were derived from off-line QLAB software (Philips Medical Systems). 3D-RVEF was calculated by using 4D RV Function software (TomTec Imaging Systems). Results: The parameters of TAD showed a moderate correlation with pulmonary artery systolic pressure (P〈0.01). However, there was a higher correlation between TAD and 3D-RVEF (P〈 0.01). The parameters of TAD in PH group were significantly lower than the corresponding values in healthy subjects (P〈 0.01). The inter-and intra-observer variabilities for measurement of TAD were (0.05 ± 1.75) mm and (-0. 15 ± 1.09) mm, respectively. Conclusions: TAD, based on 2D speckle tracking imaging, proved to be a rapid, accurate and reproducible method in determining RV systolic function.
