摘要
The effects of chronic volume or pressure overload on the velocity of right ventricular ejection have not been previously well defined. We hypothesized that, as formerly shown for the left ventricle, there would be a direct relationship between the velocity of ejection and an estimate of systolic wall stress. Methods: Echocardiograms of asymptomatic patients, not on cardiac medications, with either an isolated secundum atrial septal defect greater than or equal to 5 mm in diameter or isolated pulmonic stenosis with a peak instantaneous pressure gradient greater than or equal to 20 mmHg, were reviewed. Forty-one patients with an atrial septal defect and 34 with pulmonary stenosis met criteria, and were compared to age-matched normal controls. Total subjects were 127 with ages ranging from 1 day to 54 years. Right ventricular monoplane ejection fraction, ejection time corrected for heart rate (ETc), mean normalized systolic ejection rate (MNSERc) and meridianal peak-systolic wall stress (WSps) were measured. Results: Compared to controls, ejection fractions were not significantly different, but WSps averaged 81% and 110% higher, ETc 8% and 9% longer, and MNSERc 5% and 9% slower in the atrial septal defect and pulmonary stenosis groups, respectively. Among all subjects WSps had a significant linear correlation with ETc (r = 0.61, P < 0.01), MNSERc (r = -0.46, P < 0.01), and ejection fraction (r = -0.19, P < 0.05). Conclusions: Increases in WSps cause an incremental slowing of MNSERc in the right ventricle, with a relationship that is linear over a wide range of normal and abnormal loading conditions.
