Caractérisation échographique de la pathologie carotidienne athéromateuse (étude des corrélations entre la pathologie athéromateuse carotidienne et coronaire.)
No full textContexte : L'echodoppler carotidien (EDC) est un outil pour définir le risque cardio-vasculaire (RCV) mais peut progresser dans ses indications et dans les paramètres mesurés. Les travaux 1-2-3 étudient les correlations échographiques de l'index de volume de plaque (IVP). Les études 4-5 étudient l apport de l EDC dans l'évaluation du RCV des patients avec syndromes coronaires aigus (SCA). Matériels: les études N1-2-3 ont été réalisées sur 93 patients avec EDC. Les études 4-5 ont été réalisées sur 152 patients avec SCA et EDC systématique. Les analyses sont transversales et longitudinales. Résultats : L'IVP n est pas corrélé aux paramètres usuels de quantification de l athérome carotidien. Il est plus sensible que le degré de sténose pour mesurer les changements de la plaque d athérome. L'EDC chez tous les patients atteints de SCA est peu rentable. Ciblé aux patients âgés et diabétiques, il améliore ses performances. Les plaques carotidiennes 50-70 % ont une valeur pronostique significative. Conclusion : L EDC est un outil intéressant pour aborder le RCV. Sa meilleure utilisation (quantitative et qualitative) permet de mieux appréhender le RCV.Background: Carotid echo Doppler (EDC) is an interesting tool to define the cardio vascular risk (RCV) of patients. However its performances could be increased with creation of new parameters The studies n1, 2 and 3 studied the correlations between the plaque volume index (IVP) and the currently used echographic parameters. Studies n 4 and 5 studied the contribution of EDC for evaluating the RCV in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Materials: Studies n1,2 and 3 were performed on 93 patients with EDC. Studies n 4 and 5 were performed on 152 patients with an SCA and EDC systematically achieved. Results: IVP was not correlated with the parameters currently used to quantify carotid atheroma. IVP was more sensible than the stenosis degree to detect the changes in carotid atheroma. EDC performed in all patients with an SCA could not be justified. Performed in elderly and diabetic patients, this tool was very useful to detect severe stenosis with an impact on patients s management. Asymptomatic Carotid narrowing between was found to have a prognostic value. Conclusion: EDC is an interesting tool to understand the RCV. Its better use (quantitative and qualitative) should allow to reduce the CV morbid mortality.TOURS-Bibl.électronique (372610011) / SudocSudocFranceF

No full textDifferent Criteria of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy and Their Prognostic Value for Worsening Heart Failure or Major Arrhythmic Events in Patients With Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy
No full textInternational audienceThere are still controversies about pertinent criteria for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and prophylactic indications for biventricular cardioverter-defibrillators, particularly in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC). This study compared several criteria for resynchronization therapy in IDC among those of several completed trials. In 201 patients with IDC, the relative risk for (1) death from heart failure (HF) or heart transplantation and (2) sudden death or sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia were calculated separately according to the inclusion criteria of the Multisite Stimulation in Cardiomyopathy (MUSTIC), InSync, Multicenter InSync Randomized Clinical Evaluation (MIRACLE), Pacing Therapies for Congestive Heart Failure (PATH-CHF), Comparison of Medical Therapy, Pacing, and Defibrillation in Heart Failure (COMPANION), and CONTAK studies. The percentage of patients meeting the criteria ranged from 6% for those of MUSTIC to 23% for those of CONTAK. In a follow-up of 51 +/- 42 months, 28 patients died (15 from progressive HF, 13 from sudden death), 20 underwent heart transplantation, and 12 had sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia. Relative risks of worsening HF ranged from 3.14 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.41 to 6.99, p = 0.005) for the MIRACLE criteria to 4.63 (95% CI 1.76 to 12.2, p = 0.0019) for the MUSTIC criteria. Only the CONTAK criteria were significantly associated with a risk for major arrhythmic events (2.65, 95% CI 1.19 to 5.95, p = 0.018). Arrhythmic events constituted 16% of all cardiac events for the MUSTIC patients, 11% for InSync patients, 31% for PATH-CHF patients, 36% for MIRACLE patients, 38% for COMPANION patients, and 42% for CONTAK patients. In conclusion, in IDC, the less restrictive criteria for CRT were associated with the greatest risk for arrhythmic events. In contrast, patients with the MUSTIC criteria for CRT mainly had a risk for worsening HF and may not benefit from biventricular cardioverter-defibrillators
