dc.description.abstractHjerteultralyd som markør for funksjon og prognose ved akutt hjerteinfarkt Lege og forsker Benthe Sjøli har vist at bruk av hjerteultralyd før utskrivelse av pasienter som har gjennomgått hjerteinfarkt, er en god markør på infarktstørrelse, hjertets pumpefunksjon og prognose. Graden av hjertemuskelskade etter gjennomgått hjerteinfarkt er viktig for å gi diagnostisk og prognostisk informasjon hos disse pasientene. Ved å tidlig identifisere pasienter med stor risiko, kan videre valg av behandling optimaliseres. Hjerteultralyd er en lett tilgjengelig, skånsom og billig undersøkelsesmetode. I dag brukes ejeksjons fraksjon (EF) som et mål på venstre hovedkammers pumpefunksjon. Denne metoden er svært undersøkeravhengig og har stor variabilitet. Sjøli og medarbeidere har vist at bruk av nyere ultralydteknikker har mindre variabilitet og dermed flere fordeler sammenlignet med EF til å evaluere infarktstørrelse og funksjon hos pasienter med akutt hjerteinfarkt. Ved å måle deformering av hjertemuskelveggen (strain) viser dette et godt samsvar med infarktstørrelse målt ved MR. I tillegg er denne metoden bedre til å tidlig forutsi hendelser etter gjennomgått hjerteinfarkt. Avhandlingen ”Diagnostic and prognostic use of myocardial strain in patients with acute myocardial infarction” utgår fra Universitetet i Oslo og har vært et samarbeid mellom Sørlandet Sykehus, Arendal og Oslo Universitetssykehus, Rikshospitalet. Funnene i avhandlingen viser at en ny hjerteultralyd markør kan gi bedre vurdering av hjerteinfarktstørrelse, hjertets pumpefunksjon og prognose ved bruk før utskrivelse etter hjerteinfarkt.nor
dc.description.abstractEvaluation of the degree of myocardial injury as a result of myocardial necrosis in the acute phase of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) may be of clinical importance to guide further revascularisation and add important diagnostic and prognostic information in these patients. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) measured by echocardiography during initial hospitalisation is a well-established marker of LV global function and predicts short- and long-term morbidity and mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction. However, the measurement of LVEF presents a number of challenges related to image quality, assumptions of LV geometry and high observer variability. Measurement of myocardial deformation by strain has emerged as a promising tool to evaluate regional and global function. The aim of this thesis in clinical cardiology was to investigate the ability of strain to predict myocardial necrosis, LV function and clinical cardiac outcome in patients with acute STEMI. The thesis was based on data from a prospective study of 77 consecutive patients with first time acute STEMI treated with thrombolysis. Echocardiographic measurements were performed within 3.5 hours after treatment with thrombolysis and after revascularisation with percutaneous coronary intervention. Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging was used as the reference method for measurements of infarct size. Clinical cardiac endpoints were registered. A novel finding was that global strain should preferably be measured after revascularisation for optimal prediction of final infarct size in patients with AMI. In addition, global strain measured after revascularisation predicted infarct size and cardiac events superior to LVEF in patients with acute STEMI. In summary, global strain is a good predictor of myocardial necrosis, LV function and clinical cardiac outcome in patients with acute STEMI.eng
