Detection of unrecognized myocardial infarction by preprocedural transthoracic echocardiography in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention

BACKGROUND: Previous studies showed that unrecognized myocardial infarction (UMI) identified on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was related to worse prognosis. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of preprocedural transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to detect the presence of UMI in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

METHODS: A total of 138 patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) without history of myocardial infarction or revascularization were retrospectively studied. UMI was evaluated with pre-PCI late gadolinium enhancement (LGE)-CMR. TTE and two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) were performed before PCI. All patients were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of UMI, and clinical and echocardiographic findings were compared between these two groups.

RESULTS: UMI was detected in 43 patients (31.2%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that higher SYNTAX score, the presence of wall motion abnormalities (WMAs) and lower global longitudinal strain (GLS) were independent predictors of the presence of UMI. Furthermore, GLS provided incremental efficacy for the detection of UMI over abnormal Q waves, SYNTAX score and WMAs.

CONCLUSIONS: Preprocedural TTE in combination with 2D-STE could help identify patients with UMI regardless of the presence or absence of ECG findings and WMAs.
