Value of Fragmented QRS in Predicting Prognosis of Patients after Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
-
摘要:
目的 研究CRT植入前后碎裂QRS（fragmented QRS，fQRS）特征与CRT应答之间的关系。 方法 纳入2016年1月至2018年12月昆明医科大学第一附属医院心脏内科接受CRT植入的心力衰竭患者，分别采集患者CRT植入前和植入后6个月的12导联心电图及超声心动图图像并分析其与CRT应答的关系。 结果 研究纳入108例患者（其中男性78例，占总人数的72.2%），平均年龄（56.5±11.9）岁。共有75例患者（69.4%）对CRT有应答，左室射血分数显著增加[从（30.71±1.92）～（50.61±2.57），P < 0.001]，左室舒张末容积显著（LVESV）降低[从（195.26±78.79）～（156.55±84.44）， P < 0.001]。CRT植入后，有应答患者心电图中有fQRS导联的数量未改变[CRT植入前后分别为（6.25±2.68） vs （6.03±2.54）， P= 0.571]，无应答者心电图中fQRS导联数量显著增加[CRT植入前后分别为（6.18±2.20） vs （7.36±2.61），P= 0.013]。多因素Logistic分析显示，QRS时限的降低和CRT植入后fQRS导联数量的减少是CRT应答的独立预测因子。 结论 CRT植入后含fQRS导联的数量增加是CRT无应答的独立预测因子，除QRS宽度及形态以外的心电图特征有助于评估在心力衰竭患者是否适合接受CRT植入。 Abstract:Objestive To investigate the association between characteristics of Fragmented QRS（fQRS）before and after CRT implantation and response to CRT. Methods Patients with heart failure planned for CRT were enrolled. The 12-lead ECGs before and after CRT were analyzed. The presence of fQRs was confirmed according to the definition in previous studies. Echocardiography imagines were obtained before and 6 months after the CRT implantation. Results The study included 108 patients（78 male, 72.2%）with a mean age of 56.5 ± 11.9 years. Totally 75 patients（69.4%）responded to CRT with significantly increased mean LVEF（from 30.71±1.92 to 50.61±2.57, P < 0.001）and decreased LVESV（from 195.26±78.79 to 156.55±84.44, P < 0.001）. After CRT implantation, the number of leads with fQRS remained unchanged in responders（6.25±2.68 vs. 6.03±2.54, P= 0.57 before and after CRT respectively）but increased in non-responders（6.18±2.20 vs.7.36±2.61, P = 0.013 before and after CRT respectively）. In the multivariate logistic analysis, a decreased number of leads with fQRS and shortened QRS duration immediately after CRT implantation was found to be a predictor of response to CRT. Conclusions In patients undergoing CRT, new fQRS as well as an increased number of leads with fQRS in 12-lead ECG immediately after CRT implantation predicts non-response to CRT and may help in the decision making in heart failure patients. -
