The spectral Doppler mitral flow pattern,
alone or combined with tissue Doppler mitral annulus velocity, can be
used to predict left ventricular (LV) filling pressure in humans,
whereas invasive hemodynamic measurements are still required in the
rat. This study was undertaken to assess whether LV end-diastolic
pressure (LVEDP) can be estimated using Doppler echocardiography in the
rat after myocardial infarction (MI). Thirty-seven rats (23 rats with
MI after left coronary artery ligation and 14 sham-operated rats) were
evaluated 3 mo after surgery with echo-Doppler and invasive hemodynamic
measurements. Pulse wave spectral Doppler at the mitral valve tip was
used to measure the E wave, the E wave deceleration time (DT), and the
A wave; spectral Doppler tissue imaging was used to measure the early
diastolic lateral mitral annulus velocity (Ea).
We found weak correlations between LVEDP and the peak velocity of the
early mitral inflow (E), E/peak velocity of the
late mitral inflow, and DT, and strong correlations with
Ea and especially with
E/Ea [R2 = 0.89, LVEDP (in mmHg) = 0.987E/Ea
4.229].
Longitudinal followup of a subgroup of rats with MI revealed a marked
rise of E/Ea between days
7 and 21 in rats with heart failure only. We conclude
that Doppler echocardiography can be used for serial assessment of LV
diastolic function in rats with MI.
