Abstract

Objective: Investigating left ventricular segmental and global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) in patients with stable ischemic heart disease who had percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) indications. Subjects and methods: This was cross-sectional study. The patient group included 31 patients with stable ischemic heart disease who had PCI indications at 103 Military Hospital from January, 2023 to May, 2023. Results: LVGLS was -15,1 ± 2,4%. Absolute values of segmental longitudinal strain were decreased; apical (-17,8 ± 4,1%), middle (-14,7 ± 2,9) and basal (-12,4 ± 2,8%), respectively. LVGLS was lower in dyskinetic group (-13,58 ± 0,9) than in non-dyskinetic group (-15,9 ± 2,63), p < 0,05. There were significant correlation between LVGLS and NT-ProBNP concentrations (r = 0,362, p < 0,05). Conclusions: The results of this study appeared that absolute values of segmental longitudinal strain were decreased apical, middle and basal, respectively. Furthermore, LVGLS moderately correlated significantly with NT-ProBNP concentrations.
