To investigate cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-derived parameters to determine a convenient index reflecting the degree of pulmonary regurgitation (PR) after Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair.
Sixty-three patients (age at CMR study, 23.6 [10.2-34.7] years, 55.6% male) underwent CMR after TOF repair. PR was quantified using ventricular stroke volume difference and phase-contrast mapping of the main pulmonary artery flow. In both approaches, the PRV index (PRVI) and the PR fraction (PRF) were calculated and correlated to the right ventricle end-diastolic volume index (RVEDVI) and the right ventricle end-systolic volume index (RVESVI).
No statistically significant difference was observed between the PR volumes and the PRF measured by the stroke volume difference or the phase-contrast method. The PRVI was better correlated to RVEDVI and RVESVI than the PRF.
The PRVI exhibits more correlation to the RVEDVI than PRF. Thus, it could be a preferable parameter to reflect the PR burden.
研究心脏磁共振成像(CMR)衍生参数,以确定一个方便的指标来反映法洛四联症(TOF)修复术后肺动脉反流(PR)的程度。
63例患者(CMR研究时年龄为23.6 [10.2 - 34.7]岁,55.6%为男性)在TOF修复术后接受了CMR检查。通过心室每搏输出量差异和主肺动脉血流的相位对比成像对PR进行量化。在这两种方法中,均计算PR容积指数(PRVI)和PR分数(PRF),并将其与右心室舒张末期容积指数(RVEDVI)和右心室收缩末期容积指数(RVESVI)进行相关性分析。
通过每搏输出量差异法和相位对比法测量的PR容积和PRF之间未观察到统计学显著差异。与PRF相比,PRVI与RVEDVI和RVESVI的相关性更好。
与PRF相比,PRVI与RVEDVI的相关性更强。因此,它可能是反映PR负荷的更优参数。
