OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the ability of bedside emergency Doppler/Echocardiographic (ECOCG/DP) studies in the diagnosis of mechanic complications during acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
DESIGN: Retrospective analysis of 44 fatal AMI cases, studied by ECOCG/DP and with diagnostic confirmation by surgery and/or necropsy.
SETTING: Patients (pts) with AMI admitted to an Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary Hospital (UCIM), Hospital de Santa Maria.
PATIENTS: 44 fatal AMI cases were analysed (24 men and 20 women; mean age +/- SD: 72 +/- 9 years) and were divided in two groups according to Killip classification in Group 1 (III/IV): 35 pts and Group 2 (I/II): 9 pts.
METHODS: ECOCG/DP was performed in a routine basis at admission, using all standard views and by subcostal view when in an emergency scenario.
RESULTS: In 20 pts with bad left ventricular function (LVF) (Group 1) at admission, ECOCG/DP monitoring showed that death was due to worsening of LVF, which was confirmed by necropsy. In the other 15 pts of this group, ECOCG/DP documented the clinical diagnosis of cardiac rupture (free wall: 4 pts; papillary muscle: 4 pts; interventricular septum: 7 pts) which was confirmed by surgery and/or necropsy. In the 9 pts of Group 2, ECOCG/DP disclosed, at admission, good LVF in all. In 5 pts there was a sudden worsening clinical status, and ECOCG/DP showed a severe pericardial effusion with right chambers collapse, highly suggestive of free wall rupture also confirmed at necropsy. In the other 4 pts, ECOCG/DP showed aggravation of wall motion abnormalities and of LVF without rupture, once again in agreement with necropsy. Five clinical cases are presented for illustration of this issue.
CONCLUSION: In the 44 fatal AMI cases of our study there was complete agreement between the ECOCG/DP and necropsy studies. In AMI patients, ECOCG/DP monitoring can in a routine basis, evaluate wall motion abnormalities and LVF. In an emergency setting ECOCG/DP can diagnose all the mechanic complications with a great certainty.
