文摘
First, to examine the perioperative association between increased cardiac index (CI) measured using three-dimensional echocardiography (CI3D), two-dimensional echocardiography (CI2D), and FloTrac/Vigileo (CIFT) (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) after cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and decreased brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) 6 months after CRT. Second, to evaluate the accuracy and tracking ability of CI2D and CIFT.

Design

A prospective clinical study.

Setting

A cardiac surgery operating room in a single cardiovascular center.

Participants

Forty-five patients undergoing elective CRT lead implantation.

Interventions

CIFT and CI2D were determined simultaneously before and after CRT using CI3D as the reference method.

Measurements and Main Results

BNP was measured before CRT and 6 months after CRT. Areas under the receiver operator characteristic curves (AUCs) were calculated for each method of measurement to predict BNP decrease. AUC was largest for CI3D (AUC = 0.735, p = 0.017). Bland-Altman analysis revealed that the percentage error was 58% for CIFT and 28% for CI2D. A polar plot analysis showed that the mean angular bias was -7.26° and 0.64°, the radial limits of agreement were 70° and 29.4°, and the concordance rate was 67.7% and 93.8% for CIFT and CI2D, respectively.

Conclusions

CI significantly increased after CRT in patients whose BNP level decreased 6 months after CRT. However, only CI3D could predict decreases in BNP 6 months after CRT. Although CI2D was acceptable compared with CI3D, the tracking ability of CI changes was just below acceptable. CIFT has a wide limit of agreement with CI3D, with a poor tracking ability.
