Left Atrial Function and Volume an Independent Markers of Cardiovascular Involvement in Early Chronic Kidney Disease
Author(s): Wafaa S El-Sherbeny* and Suzan B Elhefnawy
Aim: value of left atrium (LA) volume and function evaluated by strain analysis in the detection of myocardial involvement in early chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with coexistent of hypertension.
Methods: 33 patients with CKD stage 2 or stage 3, with mild hypertension compared with 32 age matched hypertensive patients with normal kidney function and 30 healthy control subjects, all participants underwent trans thoracic echocardiography to assess left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic function, LV mass and LA volume index (LAVI) by 2D and pulsed wave Doppler imaging, and LA segmental strain measured by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI).
Results: Stage 3 CKD had the most reduced diastolic function compared with ot... view more»
