The Doppler-derived myocardial performance index (MPI) has been considered as a diagnostic and prognostic Doppler marker for many different clinical conditions. The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of traditional Pulsed-wave Doppler (PWD-MPI) and Pulsed-wave tissue Doppler imaging (TDI-MPI) and the degree of agreement between these methods in patients with grade-I diastolic dysfunction (DDI) and a normal ejection fraction.
Forty-seven consecutive ambulatory patients with DDI were compared to 51 healthy subjects with normal echocardiograms. All subjects underwent measurement of time intervals and MPI with PWD and pulsed TDI.
TDI-MPI and PWD-MPI were significantly higher in patients with DDI than in control subjects: 0.49 ± 0.14 vs. 0.40 ± 0.09 (P < 0.001) and 0.45 ± 0.11 vs. 0.37 ± 0.08 (P < 0.001), respectively. Cutoff values of TDI-MPI > 0.42 and PWD-MPI > 0.40 identified DDI subjects, with sensitivities of 74 and 64%; specificities of 61 and 69%; positive likelihood ratios of 1.9 and 2.0; and negative likelihood ratios of 0.42 and 0.53, respectively; no significant difference was noted between the areas under the ROC curves of TDI-MPI and PWD-MPI (P = 0.77). Bland-Altman plots showed wide limits of agreement between these indices: - 0.17 to 0.23 in healthy subjects and - 0.24 to 0.32 in DDI patients.
PWD-MPI and TDI-MPI showed poor clinical agreement and were not reliable parameters for the assessment of left ventricular diastolic function.
在许多不同临床情况下,多普勒衍生的心肌性能指数(MPI)被视为一种诊断和预后的多普勒标志物。本研究的目的是确定传统脉冲波多普勒(PWD-MPI)和脉冲波组织多普勒成像(TDI-MPI)在I级舒张功能障碍(DDI)且射血分数正常的患者中的诊断准确性,以及这些方法之间的一致性程度。
将47例连续的门诊DDI患者与51例超声心动图正常的健康受试者进行比较。所有受试者均接受了PWD和脉冲TDI的时间间隔和MPI测量。
DDI患者的TDI-MPI和PWD-MPI显著高于对照组:分别为0.49±0.14 vs. 0.40±0.09(P<0.001)和0.45±0.11 vs. 0.37±0.08(P<0.001)。TDI-MPI>0.42和PWD-MPI>0.40的临界值可识别DDI受试者,敏感性分别为74%和64%;特异性分别为61%和69%;阳性似然比分别为1.9和2.0;阴性似然比分别为0.42和0.53;TDI-MPI和PWD-MPI的ROC曲线下面积之间无显著差异(P=0.77)。Bland-Altman图显示这些指标之间的一致性界限较宽:健康受试者为-0.17至0.23,DDI患者为-0.24至0.32。
PWD-MPI和TDI-MPI临床一致性较差,不是评估左心室舒张功能的可靠参数。
