OBJECTIVE: A prospective angiographic study was undertaken to investigate, with an objective analysis, the global and regional wall response to myocardial revascularization.
METHODS: Thirty-one patients (30 men and 1 woman, mean age, 61 years) with a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 0.30 were admitted to our institution between 1992 and 1995 for two- or three-vessel coronary artery disease requiring myocardial revascularization. All patients underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting and were studied 3 months later with angiography. Preoperative and postoperative wall motion were analyzed using special software that computed a segmental left ventricular ejection fraction, generating a segmental score. Computerized analysis allowed us to distinguish patients with diffuse hypokinesis and a symmetric contraction pattern from patients with akinesis involving at least two segments and an asymmetric contraction pattern.
RESULTS: There were no operative deaths and no patient required intraaortic balloon counterpulsation. One patient had postoperative enzymatic evidence of myocardial infarction. Postoperative angiography showed a graft patency rate of 84%. Global analysis showed a small but significant rise in the left ventricular ejection fraction (0.25 +/- 0.51 to 0.31 +/- 0.70, p < 0.001) and a fall in the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (23.7 +/- 10 to 16.5 +/- 9 mm Hg, p < 0.01). Mean scores always have been lower after the operation than before it, with the best results obtained for the apex and the worst for the anterobasal segment. The group with a symmetric contraction pattern showed a trend toward a better hemodynamic response than the group with an asymmetric contraction pattern. Regression analysis revealed two important predictors of segmental functional improvement: (1) the absence of an echocardiographic scar, and (2) the presence of a collateral circulation.
CONCLUSIONS: Coronary artery bypass grafting produced a small but substantial improvement in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The greater benefit occurred in patients with a symmetric contraction pattern. The absence of an echocardiographic scar and the presence of a collateral circulation predicted segmental functional improvement.
