ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has established itself as the gold standard for serial assessment of systemic right ventricular (RV) performance but due to the lack of standardized RV reference values for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) patients, the interpretation of RV volumetric data in HLHS remains difficult. Therefore, this study aimed to close this gap by providing CMR reference values for the systemic RV in HLHS patients.METHODS:
CMR scans of 160 children, adolescents, and young adults (age range 2.2-25.2 years, 106 males) with HLHS were retrospectively evaluated. All patients were studied following total cavopulmonary connection. Short-axis stacks were used to measure RV end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes (RVEDV, RVESV), RV stroke volume (RVSV), RV ejection fraction (RVEF), and RV end-diastolic myocardial mass (RVEDMM). Univariable and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to assess associations between RV parameters and demographic and anthropometric characteristics. Following the results of the regression analysis, reference graphs and tables were created with the Lambda-Mu-Sigma method.RESULTS:
Multiple linear regression analysis showed strong associations between body height and RVEDV, RVESV as well as RVSV. Age was highly associated with RVEDMM. Therefore, percentile curves and tables were created with respect to body height (RVEDV, RVESV, RVSV) and age (RVEDMM). The influence of demographic and anthropometric parameters on RVEF was mild, thus no percentile curves and tables for RVEF are provided.CONCLUSION:
We were able to define CMR reference values for RV volumetric variables for HLHS patients. These data might be useful for the assessment and interpretation of CMR scans in these patients and for research in this field.Palabras clave
