Resumo

Hibernation is a reversible myocyte pathophysiological substrate that can be detected by several imaging techniques. However, the true impact of the amount of viable myocardium on left ventricular contractile dynamics has been poorly evaluated. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the correlation of viable myocardium with left ventricle mechanical dyssynchrony in subjects with residual stenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention. METHODS: Phase standard deviation (PSD) and phase bandwidth (PBW) at rest were obtained in a retrospective sample of patients referred to gated-SPECT. Patients in non-sinus rhythm, wide QRS, renal dysfunc tion, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and valvular heart disease were excluded. The sample was divided into two groups according to the presence (n=25) or absence (n=90) of residual epicardial disease after an acute coronary event. Phase analysis (PA) indexes were correlated with the amount of viable myocardium applying two uptake thresholds (40% and 50%) using Pearson coefficient (r). RESULTS. Both groups of patients did not differed in age, basal LVEF or cavitary volumes. The amount of nonviable myocardium was better correlated with PA indexes in the presence of residual epicardial lesions. This correlation was more powerful for PBW (r=0.82, 95% CI: 0.63-0.91, p<0.0001) than for PSD (r=0.77, 95% CI: 0.53-0.89, p<0.0001) and decreased to r=0.73 and 0.77, respectively, when a higher viability threshold was considered (50%). The best correlation was observed in those with residual lesions and fixed perfusion defects suggestive of scar (r=0.93 for ABF, p <0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with residual stenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention, the amount of hibernated myocardium correlates closely with mechanical ventricular dyssynchrony. The best correlation is observed when using a baseline myocardial uptake threshold of at least 40%, especially when scar tissue coexists.
