ASSESSMENT OF SUPERIOR VENA CAVAL BLOOD FLOW VELOCITY IN ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE

In order to evaluate the right atrial function in patients with ischemic heart-disease, we studied the superior vena caval blood flow velocity using pulsed Doppler echocardiography. The subjects included 31 patients with anteroseptal infarction (ANT). 23 with inferior or inferoposterior infarction (...

Zusammenfassung:	In order to evaluate the right atrial function in patients with ischemic heart-disease, we studied the superior vena caval blood flow velocity using pulsed Doppler echocardiography. The subjects included 31 patients with anteroseptal infarction (ANT). 23 with inferior or inferoposterior infarction (INF+POS), 27 with effort angina pectoris (EAP) and 15 with vasospastic angina pectoris (VAP). Th systolic peak flow velocity (PFVs) was significantly reduced only in INF+POS compared with those in ANT, EAP and VAP (36.8±1.8cm/sec vs 46.9±2.1cm/sec. 46.4±2.1cm/sec and 42.6±1.9cm/sec, p
