Abstract
Introduction: Despite current guidelines provide recommendations for the optimal management of degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR), this condition remains often undertreated with delay in surgical referral and dismal effect on outcomes. Areas covered: This review focuses on the role of echocardiography in guiding mitral valve (MV) surgical repair in degenerative MR due to leaflet prolapse. Expert opinion: A stepwise protocol-driven echocardiography shared by referring physician and surgeon may help to guide referral to surgical repair in degenerative MR. This protocol particularly is useful to identify the ideal patho-anatomy for a successful and durable repair especially when early surgery is proposed and to refer the patient to centers of excellence in case of complex anatomy. Nearly 100% repair rate can be achieved when the surgical technique is adapted to the lesions seen in each valve. Three-dimensional echocardiography predicts repair complexity may be useful and should therefore be implemented. However, the current literature is far from comprehensive deriving from small, single-center studies. Therefore, reproducibility and external validation, especially with newly developed quantitative automated software, are still needed.

Imaging functional stress test for stable chest pain symptoms in patients at low pretest probability of coronary artery disease: Current practice and long-term outcome. Echocardiography 2019; 36:1095-1102. [PMID: 31038795 DOI: 10.1111/echo.14352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2018] [Accepted: 03/29/2019] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress testing in patients with low pretest probability (PTP) of coronary artery disease (CAD) has become an increasing practice, potentially leading to underestimation of its true clinical value. Our aim was to describe the current use of most employed imaging functional tests and their prognostic value. METHODS AND RESULTS We selected patients with low PTP of CAD (CAD consortium clinical score < 15%) who underwent exercise or dipyridamole stress echocardiography or single photon emission computed tomography for suspected angina. Main exclusions were age < 45, known CAD, and abnormal rest wall motion. Of the 2279 subjects undergoing stress test, 883 (39%) had low PTP, and 91 (10.3%) had a positive test for ischemia. After a median follow-up of 5.8 years, 36 patients had events (21 died, 14 had nonfatal myocardial infarction). The percentage of events in the abnormal and normal stress test groups were similar (5 [5.5%] vs 31 [3.9%], P = ns), as the annualized event rate (0.87% vs 0.62%, P = ns). Age was the only variable associated with outcome in the regression analysis (hazard ratio 1.072, 95% CI 1.034-1.113, P < 0.001). An abnormal result was not associated with worse outcome in each of the subgroups of functional tests. CONCLUSIONS In our geographical area, a considerable proportion of patients undergoing imaging functional tests for stable chest pain have a low estimated PTP of CAD. Of these, 1 in 10 resulted positive for inducible ischemia. However, none of the most common imaging functional tests, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and stress echocardiography offer prognostic information in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess prevalence and clinical implications of left ventricular (LV) remodeling considering: LV volume, mass and relative wall thickness at the time of aortic valve stenosis diagnosis. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively analyzed 343 patients (age 79.2 ± 9.5 years, 48.1% males) with functional aortic valve area (AVA) ≤ 1.5 cm2 . LV geometric patterns and clinical outcomes (combined death, cardiac hospitalization, aortic valve replacement [AVR]) were evaluated. According to the new LV remodeling classification, 4.9% had normal geometry, 7.5% concentric remodeling, 39.3% concentric hypertrophy (LVH), 22.4% mixed LVH, 12.5% dilated LVH, 3.2% eccentric LVH and 4.3% eccentric remodeling, 5.5% had not classifiable LVH. Indexed stroke volume (SVi) was higher in patients with concentric LVH (40.3 ± 11.9 mL/m2 ) and mixed LVH (41.6 ± 13.4 mL/m2 ) and lower in patients with eccentric LVH (24.9 ± 7.7 mL/m2 ), concentric (36.6 ± 12.7 mL/m2 ) and eccentric remodeling (34.9 ± 9.5 mL/m2 ), P = 0.003. During a median follow-up of 2.2 years, 260 (75.8%) had the combined end point. A significant association between the combined end point and LV dilation (P = 0.010) or LV remodeling patterns (P = 0.0001) was found. After multivariable adjustment for AVR, concentric remodeling (HR 3.12, IC 95% 1.14-8.55; P = 0.02) and dilated LVH (HR 3.48, IC 95% 1.31-9.27; P = 0.01) were strongly associated with death or cardiac hospitalizations. CONCLUSIONS In patients with AVA ≤ 1.5 cm2 , when the new LV remodeling classification system is applied, only a minority had normal geometry and less than half had "classic" concentric LVH or remodeling. LV volume dilatation is frequent and associated with adverse outcome. Concentric remodeling, eccentric remodeling, dilated LVH had the worst noninvasive hemodynamic profile and prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular (LV) remodeling due to aortic regurgitation (AR) often leads to maladaptive responses. We assessed the prevalence and clinical implications of LV remodeling considering LV volume, mass, and relative wall thickness at the time of AR diagnosis. METHODS AND RESULTS Between 2008 and 2017, 370 consecutive patients (mean age 67.3 ± 16.1 years, 56.5% males), with moderate or severe AR, were retrospectively analyzed. LV geometric patterns and clinical outcomes (cardiovascular death, hospitalization for heart failure, or aortic valve replacement) were evaluated. LV dilatation (LV end-diastolic volume >75 mL/m2 ) was present in 228 patients (61.6%). Applying the new LV remodeling classification system, 40 (10.8%) patients had normal geometry, 14 (3.8%) concentric remodeling, 43 (11.6%) concentric hypertrophy (LVH), 45 (12.2%) indeterminate LVH, 38 (10.3%) mixed LVH, 93 (25.1%) dilated LVH, 54 (14.6%) eccentric LVH, and 43 (11.6%) eccentric remodeling. During a median follow-up of 3.48 years (25th-75th percentile 0.91-5.57), 97 (26.2%) had the combined endpoint. LV dilation (P < 0.001), LVH (P < 0.001), and LV remodeling patterns were significantly associated with the combined endpoint. After multivariable adjustment for age, EF, aortic stenosis, CAD history, and moderate mitral regurgitation, dilated LVH (HR 7.61, IC 95% 1.82-31.80; P = 0.005) and eccentric LVH (HR 7.91, IC 95% 1.82-34.38; P = 0.006) were associated with adverse outcome compared to eccentric remodeling, that showed the best event-free survival rate. CONCLUSIONS In a contemporary cohort of patients with AR, applying the new LV remodeling classification system, only a minority had normal geometry. Dilated LVH and eccentric LVH showed distinct outcome penalty after adjustment for confounders.

Abstract
Background Data on stress echocardiography (SE) time-related changes in referral patterns and diagnostic yield for detection of inducible ischemia could enhance Echo Lab quality benchmarks and performance measures. Aim This study aims to evaluate temporal trends in SE test results among ambulatory patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) in a tertiary care referral center with moderate (>100/year) volume SE activities and Cath-Lab facility. Methods From January 2004 to December 2015, 1954 patients (mean age 62 ± 12 years, 42% women, 27% with known CAD) underwent SE (1673 exercise SE, 86%, 246 pharmacological SE, 12%, 35 pacing SE, 2%). Time was grouped into three 4 year periods, where clinical data and test results were evaluated. Results Our series comprised low-to-intermediate pretest probability of CAD throughout the observation period (overall pretest probability of CAD 19% ± 15%). A progressive decline over time in the rate of pharmacological SE instead of a dramatic increment of exercise SE (79%-96%, P < 0.0001) was noted. The use of beta-blockers increased (from 43% to 66%, P < 0.0001), while the use of nitrates decreased (from 11% to 4%, P < 0.0001) over time. We noted a very uncommon occurrence of abnormal test results with a further decrease in the last period (from 11% to 3%, P < 0.0001). Conclusions We observed, over a 12-year period, a progressive decrease in the frequency of inducible myocardial ischemia among patients with known or suspected CADe referred to our Echo Lab for SE with Cath-Lab facility, and this trend was parallel to changes in SE referral practice. These findings are particularly relevant if we consider the practical implications on diagnostic SE accuracy and risk assessment.

Abstract
Background: Echocardiography plays a central role in diagnosing infective endocarditis (IE). Accordingly, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) has proposed a diagnostic echocardiographic algorithm. However, new studies are still needed to evaluate the degree of implementation of these guidelines in clinical practice and their consequences on incidence and prognosis of IE. Aim: This study aims to investigate the diagnostic yield of the ESC proposed echocardiographic algorithm in patients with suspected IE. We also examined the association among IE diagnosis and clinical outcomes. Methods: Retrospective analysis of a series of patients undergoing the ESC algorithm for clinical suspicion of IE at our institution. Results: Between 2009 and 2013, 323 cases were managed by a multidisciplinary team for clinical suspicion of IE. Following ESC algorithm, 26 (8%) patients were diagnosed with IE and 297 (92%) had IE excluded. In 92% of patients with a good-quality negative transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and low level of clinical suspicion, the first TTE was considered sufficient to rule out IE. During a mean follow-up of 2.3 ± 1.4 years, patients who had a final diagnosis of IE showed similar mortality (P = 0.2) and rates of combined endpoint (all-cause death, stroke/transient ischemic attack, advanced atrioventricular block, and heart failure) compared to patients without echocardiographic diagnosis of IE (P = 0.5). Only 1% of the patients who had IE excluded experienced IE in the following 3 months, none of them in the subgroup of patients, in which a first negative TTE was considered sufficient to rule out IE. Conclusions: In spite of the current ESC recommendation TTE is used as part of a routine fever screen. Consequently, only a minority of patients had a final echocardiographic diagnosis of IE. Although in patients with low clinical suspicion a first negative TTE is sufficient to rule out IE, the incidence of clinical events is similar regardless the final diagnosis of IE.

Abstract
Background:
Mitral valve (MV) repair is preferred over replacement in clinical guidelines and is an important determinant of the indication for surgery in degenerative mitral regurgitation. However, the level of evidence supporting current recommendations is low, and recent data cast doubts on its validity in the current era. Accordingly, the aim of the present study was to analyze very long-term outcome after MV repair and replacement for degenerative mitral regurgitation with a flail leaflet.
Methods:
MIDA (Mitral Regurgitation International Database) is a multicenter registry enrolling patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation with a flail leaflet in 6 tertiary European and US centers. We analyzed the outcome after MV repair (n=1709) and replacement (n=213) overall, by propensity score matching, and by inverse probability-of-treatment weighting.
Results:
At baseline, patients undergoing MV repair were younger, had more comorbidities, and were more likely to present with a posterior leaflet prolapse than those undergoing MV replacement. After propensity score matching and inverse probability-of-treatment weighting, the 2 treatments groups were balanced, and absolute standardized differences were usually <10%, indicating adequate match. Operative mortality (defined as a death occurring within 30 days from surgery or during the same hospitalization) was lower after MV repair than after replacement in both the entire population (1.3% versus 4.7%;
P
<0.001) and the propensity-matched population (0.2% versus 4.4%;
P
<0.001). During a mean follow-up of 9.2 years, 552 deaths were observed, of which 207 were of cardiovascular origin. Twenty-year survival was better after MV repair than after MV replacement in both the entire population (46% versus 23%;
P
<0.001) and the matched population (41% versus 24%;
P
<0.001). Similar superiority of MV repair was obtained in patient subsets on the basis of age, sex, or any stratification criteria (all
P
<0.001). MV repair was also associated with reduced incidence of reoperations and valve-related complications.
Conclusions:
Among patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation with a flail leaflet referred to mitral surgery, MV repair was associated with lower operative mortality, better long-term survival, and fewer valve-related complications compared with MV replacement.

Prognostic value of a negative peak supine bicycle stress echocardiography with or without concomitant ischaemic stress electrocardiographic changes: a cohort study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND a negative peak supine bicycle exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) was shown to have a long-term favourable prognostic value. Data on the long-term prognosis of ischaemic electrocardiographic (ISECG) changes in the setting of a negative peak supine bicycle ESE are lacking. DESIGN we evaluated the prognostic value of negative peak supine bicycle ESE with or without concomitant ISECG changes in a referral population evaluated for chest pain after an inconclusive first-line work-up including clinical evaluation and exercise ECG stress. METHODS from 2003 to 2010, patients who underwent a peak supine bicycle ESE and were deemed to be negative were evaluated. Two groups based on concomitant stress ECG tracing were analysed - those with normal stress ECG and those with ISECG changes. The primary endpoint was cumulative incidence of cardiovascular death, hospitalizations for acute coronary syndrome and coronary revascularizations. RESULTS a total of 371 patients (mean age 59.1 ± 12.1 years, 49.9% women) were studied. Of those, 141 (38.0%) had concomitant ISECG changes. Mean follow-up was 3.46 ± 1.76 years. The primary endpoint occurred in 3.0% of patients, (2.2% in those with normal stress ECG, and in 4.3% with ISECG changes, p = 0.251); with unadjusted hazard ratio for primary endpoint of 2.04 (95%CI 0.62-6.69, p = 0.239) in patients with ISECG changes compared to those with normal stress ECG. CONCLUSIONS in an outpatient population without known CAD evaluated for chest pain after inconclusive first-line work-up, a negative peak supine bicycle ESE confers an excellent prognosis regardless of the nature of concomitant stress ECG abnormalities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The goal of heart failure (HF) performance measures is to improve quality of care by assessing the implementation of guidelines in eligible patients. Little is known about the proportion of eligible patients and how performance measures are implemented in the community. METHODS We determined the eligibility for and adherence to performance measures and β-blocker therapy in a community-based cohort of hospitalized HF patients from January 2005 to June 2011. RESULTS All of the 465 HF inpatients (median age 76 years, 48% men) included in the study received an ejection fraction assessment. Only 164 had an ejection fraction <40% thus were candidates for β-blocker and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) therapy. Considering absolute contraindications, 99 patients were eligible to receive ACE inhibitors/ARB, and 162 to receive β-blockers. Among these, 85% received ACE inhibitors/ARBs and 91% received β-blockers. Among the 261 individuals with atrial fibrillation, 89 were eligible for warfarin and 54% received it. Of 52 current smokers, 69% received cessation counseling during hospitalization. CONCLUSION In the community, among eligible hospitalized HF patients, the implementation of performance measures can be improved. However, as most patients are not candidates for current performance measures, other approaches are needed to improve care and outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine among community patients with heart failure (HF) whether pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) assessed by Doppler echocardiography was associated with death and improved risk prediction over established factors, using the integrated discrimination improvement and net reclassification improvement. BACKGROUND Although several studies have focused on idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, less is known about pulmonary hypertension among patients with HF, particularly about its prognostic value in the community. METHODS Between 2003 and 2010, Olmsted County residents with HF prospectively underwent assessment of ejection fraction, diastolic function, and PASP by Doppler echocardiography. RESULTS PASP was recorded in 1,049 of 1,153 patients (mean age 76 ± 13; 51% women). Median PASP was 48 mm Hg (25th to 75th percentile: 37.0 to 58.0). There were 489 deaths after a follow-up of 2.7 ± 1.9 years. There was a strong positive graded association between PASP and mortality. Increasing PASP was associated with an increased risk of death (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.45, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.13 to 1.85 for tertile 2; HR: 2.07, 95% CI: 1.62 to 2.64 for tertile 3 vs. tertile 1), independently of age, sex, comorbidities, ejection fraction, and diastolic function. Adding PASP to models including these clinical characteristics resulted in an increase in the c-statistic from 0.704 to 0.742 (p = 0.007), an integrated discrimination improvement gain of 4.2% (p < 0.001), and a net reclassification improvement of 14.1% (p = 0.002), indicating that PASP improved prediction of death over traditional prognostic factors. All results were similar for cardiovascular death. CONCLUSIONS Among community patients with HF, PASP strongly predicts death and provides incremental and clinically relevant prognostic information independently of known predictors of outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) and European Association of Echocardiography (EAE) recommend the use of quantitative estimation of left ventricular (LV) mass and defined partition values for mild, moderate, and severe hypertrophy. However, the prognostic implications associated with this categorization are unknown. METHODS In this observational cohort study of unselected adults undergoing echocardiography for any indication, LV hypertrophy was assessed using the ASE/EAE-recommended formula and measurement convention from LV linear dimensions indexed to body surface area. Mortality and incident hospitalizations for cardiovascular disease were the outcomes of this study. RESULTS Of 2,545 subjects (mean age, 61.9 ± 15.8 years; 56.3% women), 52.9% had normal LV mass, and 15.4% had mild, 12.1% moderate, and 19.6% severe LV hypertrophy. During a mean follow-up period of 2.5 ± 1.2 years, 121 deaths and 292 incident hospitalizations for cardiovascular disease occurred. In multivariate models including age, gender, LV ejection fraction, wall motion score index, significant valvular disease, and atrial fibrillation, the adjusted hazard ratios for death were 1.81 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-3.20; P = .041) for mild, 2.31 (95% CI, 1.33-4.01; P = .003) for moderate, and 2.30 (95% CI, 1.39-3.79, P = .001) for severe LV hypertrophy. The adjusted hazard ratios for incident cardiovascular hospitalizations were 1.24 (95% CI, 0.84-1.82; P = .277) for mild, 2.02 (95% CI, 1.42-2.88; P = .0001) for moderate, and 2.38 (95% CI, 1.75-3.22, P < .0001) for severe LV hypertrophy. After adjustment for known risk predictors, there was a 1.3-fold risk for death and cardiovascular disease events per category of LV mass (P = .001). CONCLUSIONS In a cohort study of unselected adult outpatients, the categorization of LV mass according to the ASE/EAE recommendations offered prognostic information independently of age, gender, and other known predictors.

Abstract
AIMS Atrial fibrillation (AFib) induces remodelling of the left atrium (LA). Indexed LA volume (iLAV) as more accurate measure of LA size has not been evaluated as predictor of recurrence of AFib after cardioversion. METHODS AND RESULTS We identified 411 adults (mean age 64.1 ± 11.4 years, 34.5% women) who underwent successful cardioversion and with no history of other atrial arrhythmia, stroke, congenital heart disease, valvular dysfunction, surgery, thyroid dysfunction, acute or chronic inflammatory disease, and pacemaker. All echocardiographic data were retrieved from the laboratory database. iLAV was measured off-line using Simpson's method. Clinical characteristics and recurrence of clinical AFib were determined by review of medical records. Patients with scheduled follow-up of at least 6 months were included. About 250 patients (60.8%) developed AFib recurrence after a median (25th-75th percentile) follow-up of 345.0 (210.0-540.0) days. Patients with AFib recurrence had significantly greater iLAV than patients without AFib recurrence (39.7 ± 8.4 vs. 31.4 ± 4.6, P < 0.001). Each mL/m(2) increase in iLAV was associated with a 30% increased risk of AFib recurrence [odds ratio (OR) 1.30, confidence interval (CI) 1.23-1.38, P < 0.001]. In a multivariable model, each mL/m(2) increase in iLAV was independently associated with a 21% increase in the risk of AFib recurrence (OR 1.21, CI 1.11-1.30, P < 0.001). The areas under receiver operating characteristic curves, generated to compare LA diameter and iLAV as predictors of AFib recurrence, were 0.59 ± 0.3 and 0.85 ± 0.2, respectively (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The present study is the first to show that larger iLAV before cardioversion, as a more accurate measure of LA remodelling than LA diameter, is strongly and independently associated with higher risks of AFib recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are frequent and share common risk factors. Yet, studies on MI patients reported limited and conflicting results on the prevalence of COPD, its impact on outcome, and how these may have changed over time. We examined, in a geographically defined community, the prevalence of COPD in patients with MI, its impact on mortality, and how these associations changed over time. METHODS Residents of Olmsted County, Minnesota, who experienced an MI meeting standardized criteria from 1979 to 2007 were included (3,438, 42% women, mean age 68 +/- 15 years). Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was ascertained from the medical records. RESULTS Of 3,438 patients, 415 (12%) had COPD. During the study, COPD prevalence increased from 7% in 1979-1985 to 15% in 2000-2007 (P < .001). Survival was worse in patients with COPD than in those without COPD (5-year survival rate: 46% [95% CI 41%-52%] vs 68% [95% CI 66%-70%], respectively; P < .01). The association between COPD and death was independent of age and risk factors (adjusted hazard ratio 1.30, 95% CI 1.10-1.54, P < .01) and did not change over time. CONCLUSIONS In a large community of patients with MI, the prevalence of COPD increased over time and was associated with a markedly increased risk of death after MI independently of age, risk factors, and comorbidity. This underscores the importance of this condition and the need to optimize care for these high-risk patients.
