Abstract

Background

Gated myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (GMPS) phase analysis is an important tool to investigate the physiology of left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony. We aimed to test the performance of GMPS LV function and phase analysis in different clinical settings and on a diverse population.

Methods

This is a post hoc analysis of a prospective, non-randomized, multinational, multicenter cohort study. Clinical evaluation and GMPS prior to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)(baseline) and 6-month post CRT (follow-up) were done. LV end-systolic volume (LVESV), LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), LV ejection fraction (LVEF), LV phase standard deviation (LVPSD), and percentage of left ventricle non-viable (PLVNV) were obtained by 10 centers and compared to the core lab.

Results

276 GMPS studies had all data available from individual sites and from core lab. There were no statistically significant differences between all variables except for LVPSD. When subjects with no mechanical dyssynchrony were excluded, LVPSD difference became non-significant. LVESV, LVEF, LVPSD and PLVNV had strong correlation in site against core lab comparison. Bland–Altman plots demonstrated good agreement.

Conclusions

The presented correlation and agreement of LV function and dyssynchrony analysis over different sites with a diverse sample corroborate the strength of GMPS in the management of heart failure in clinical practice.

Vom Wert der Ernährung bei neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen

Am Beispiel Parkinson zeigt sich, dass Ernährung nicht nur präventiv förderlich ist, sondern auch die Wirkung von Medikamenten und den Krankheitsverlauf beeinflusst. Prof. Dr. Andrés Ceballos-Baumann, München, fasst die aktuelle Studienlage zusammen, nennt die bestehenden Probleme und veranschaulicht seine Vorgehensweise.

ePA: Entlastung oder Mehrarbeit?

Die elektronische Patientenakte (ePA) soll das Gesundheitswesen revolutionieren. Mit über 2000 Krankenhäusern und mehr als 100.000 ärztlichen Praxen ist sie eines der größten Digitalisierungsprojekte Europas. Während die Politik die ePA als „Gamechanger“ feiert, zeigt sich in der Praxis ein anderes Bild.
