To assess left ventricular (LV) diastolic filling at rest in patients with
coronary artery disease (CAD), we analyzed high-resolution time- activity
curves (10-20 msec/frame) obtained from gated radionuclide angiograms in
231 patients. Peak LV filling rate (PFR), expressed in end-diastolic
volumes per second (EDV/sec), was subnormal in CAD patients (1.8 +/- 0.6
[+/- SD] vs normal mean of 3.3 +/- 0.6, p les than 0.001) and time to PFR
(TPFR), measured from end-systole to PFR, was prolonged (171 +/- 41 msec vs
normal mean of 136 +/- 23 msec, p less than 0.001). These indexes were also
abnormal in the 141 patients with normal resting LV ejection fraction (PFR
= 2.1 +/- 0.5 EDV/sec; TPFR = 175 +/- 36 msec) and in 123 patients without
Q waves on the ECG (PFR = 2.1 +/- 0.5 EDV/sec; TPFR = 168 +/- 38 msec).
Abnormal LV filling at rest (PFR less than 2.5 EDV/sec or TPFR greater than
180 msec) was found in 91% of all patients with CAD, 86% of patients with
normal resting LV ejection fractions, 85% of patients without Q waves, and
82% of patients with normal resting LV ejection fraction, no resting
regional wall motion abnormalities and no Q waves. Thus, LV diastolic
filling, evaluated noninvasively by radionuclide angiography, is abnormal
in a high percentage of patients with CAD at rest independent of LV
systolic function or previous myocardial infarction.
