[Structural-functional parameters of the myocardium in patients with chronic iron deficiency anemia].
Aim of the study was investigation of structural-functional parameters of the myocardium and assessment of segmental diastolic left ventricular function with myocardial tissue dopplerography in 56 patients with iron deficiency anemia (IDA). We studied parameters of structure of the myocardium, its systolodiastolic function, as well as velocities of early (Ve) and late (Va) diastolic waves, Ve/Va ratio, isovolumic relaxation times in 15 segments of the left ventricle. We revealed changes of myocardial structure appearing as LV hypertrophy, dilation of chambers of the heart, as well as disturbances of global and segmental diastolic LV function. Most pronounced changes were observed in patients with IDA of II and III degree of severity. The method of myocardial tissue Doppler echocardiography allows to diagnose LV diastolic dysfunction at early stages and can be used for detection of preclinical stage of myocardial dystrophy.
