Abstract

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) can lead to left ventricular (LV) remodeling, which, in adverse cases, has been associated with heart failure and increased mortality. Here, we aimed to evaluate the predictive value of the noninvasive myocardial work index (NIMWI) for LV reverse remodeling in patients with multivessel CAD after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods: A total of 88 consecutive patients with multivessel CAD treated with PCI were identified and categorized according to the presence of LV reverse remodeling 3 months after PCI [≥15% decrease in the LV end diastolic volume (LVEDV)]. With the LV pressure-strain loop (PSL) technique, NIMWIs, including the global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global wasted work (GWW), and global work efficiency (GWE), were statistically compared between the reverse LV remodeling group and nonreverse LV remodeling group 1 week before PCI.

Results: Significantly lower GWI, GCW, and GWE, and significantly higher GWW were observed in the reverse LV remodeling group compared with the nonreverse LV remodeling group (P<0.05). Left ventricular mass index (LVMI), GCW, and GWE were independently associated with early LV reverse remodeling. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated that GCW was the most powerful predictor of early LV reverse remodeling in patients with CAD [area under the curve (AUC) =0.867]. The optimal cutoff GCW value predictive of early LV reverse remodeling was 1,438.5 mmHg% (sensitivity, 85%; specificity, 70%).

Conclusions: GCW, among the NIMWIs, may be the major predictor of LV reverse remodeling in patients with multivessel CAD after PCI. NIMWI could potentially provide a new reference index for the quantitative evaluation of LV myocardial work.
