title: [The effect of myocardial revascularization on global and regional systolic and diastolic left and right ventricular function].
abstract: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of myocardial revascularization (PTCA, CABG) on right and left ventricular systolic and diastolic function, and segmental wall motion in patients with coronary artery disease. The study population consisted of 27 patients, ranging in age from 36 to 67 years (mean age 51.1 +/- 8.8). CABG and PTCA were performed in 17 and 10 patients, respectively. All patients underwent radionuclide angiocardiography at baseline and 3 months after the procedure. The following parameters were measured: ejection fraction (EF), 1/3EF, maximal emptying rate (MER), maximal filling rate (MFR), 1/3 filling fraction (1/3FF), and segmental wall motion in segments S1 to S9. Increased left ventricular EF was observed in 29.4% of patients after CABG and in 40% of patients after PTCA. Segmental wall motion in the revascularized area also improved except for septal segments in the left ventricle in patients after CABG. Global right ventricular function remained practically unchanged both after CABG and PTCA. However, EF of right ventricular septal segments increased after CABG: S1--24.58 +/- 11.7% vs 33.4 +/- 14.7%, S9--35.52 +/- 13.7% vs 46.8 +/- 15.9%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Myocardial revascularization improves left ventricular systolic and diastolic function with no effect on global right ventricular performance. After CABG the ejection fraction of septal segments was altered. Successful PTCA of LAD improves EF of septal segments in the left ventricle.
