The study of systemic hemodynamic disorders of patients with varicose and post-thrombotic diseases

Aim. Study of heart function in the patients with CVD. Materials and methods. 46 patients with varicosity (VD) and 34 patients with post-thrombotic disease (PTD) were examined; the control group was represented by 15 healthy volunteers. The diagnosis was established using the CEAP basic classification. The study did not include patients with a diagnosed arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic lung disease, significant hemodynamic heart defects, coronary heart disease. Ultrasound examination of the heart and veins of the lower extremities was performed on a Saote My Lab Alpha, Acuson Sequoia 512 apparatus. In addition to the standard protocol of heart ultrasound examination, the parameters of the right heart were calculated: sizes of the right ventricle (RV), right atrium, thickness of the anterior wall of the pancreas; to assess the ejection fraction (EF) of the pancreas the mobility of the lateral edge of the tricuspid ring was calculated, and the pressure on the tricuspid valve (TV) was measured. Diastolic ventricular function was studied by spectrograms of tricuspid and mitral blood flow. Results. Most of the indicators of cardiac activity in patients with VD were within normal limits, but a tendency to increase increasing of the right heart size was noted. In addition, the thickness of the interventricular septum and the right ventricle (RV) anterior wall was found to increase from 0.8 to 1.1 cm and from 0.3 to 0.5 cm, respectively, according clinical classes from C2 to C6 (CEAP). Eject fraction (EF) of both the RV and the left ventricle (LV) were also within normal limits, but with a tendency to decrease (67.8 % – C2, to 62 % – C6). The growth of the clinical class is followed by the increasing of percentage of non-restrictive blood flow through the tricuspid valve (TV). The restrictive type of blood flow in patients with VD had not been identified. Patients with PTD also showed a tendency to increase the right heart. However, whereas the size of the RV, as a rule, did not exceed 3.0 cm, the size of the right atrium was slightly higher than normal one in the clinical class C4 and C5.6. All the patients had EF of LV within normal limits, but it slightly decreased by the growth of class. Only patient classes C3 and C4 had EF of RV within the normal range. The 18 % of patient class C5.6 had EF lower than normal with value 48%. Diastolic dysfunction (DD) of the RV was detected in 73.3% of patients with class C3 and 100% with classes C4 and C5.6. Moreover, a restrictive type of blood flow through TV appeared from class C4 and the percentage increased up to 27.2% (class C5,6). Conclusions. DD of the RV was the main hemodynamic disorder.
