Methods: Two-dimensional echocardiography and speckle-tracking imaging for global longitudinal, circumferential and radial strain or strain rate were performed in a total of 127 consecutive severe AR patients (age:48±15 years, 89 males) and postoperative LV ejection fraction (EF) was evaluated within 7 days after surgery. Results: EF was significantly decreased after AV surgery compared with preoperative value (52.5±7.9 to 42.6±11.0, %, p<0.01). In univariate linear regression analyses, preoperative LV dimensions, volumes, EF and longitudinal, circumferential and radial strains and strain rates were correlated with postoperative EF. In multivariate analysis, preoperative LV end-systolic dimension (ß=-0.32, p=0.03) and EF (ß=0.38, p<0.01) were independent predictors of postoperative EF. ROC curve analyses showed that areas under the curve of preoperative LV end-systolic dimension and EF tended to be larger than those of speckle-tracking parameters for prediction of postoperative severe LV dysfunction (EF<35%)(Fig.). Conclusion: Although preoperative LV speckle-tracking-derived deformation parameters are associated with postoperative EF, they are not superior to conventional parameters or EF in predicting postoperative LV dysfunction in patients with severe AR.
