      predicting early and late left ventricular function in patients with anterior 
      acute myocardial infarction].

AB  - The aim of our study was to define a predictive value of ST-segment resolution 
      after coronary reperfusion for early and late left ventricular (LV) function. We 
      also studied its relation to angiographic marker of myocardial reperfusion, 
      myocardial blush grade (MBG). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Study population consisted 
      of 105 patients (75 men, 30 women, mean age 62+/-13 years) treated with primary 
      PTCA for anterior myocardial infarction (AMI) within 12 hours from symptoms 
      onset. ECG was performed before - and 30 min. after PTCA. We evaluated 
      angiographic markers of recanalization (TIMI, corrected TIMI frame count) and 
      myocardial reperfusion - MBG. Echocardiography was performed 3 days and 6 months 
      after AMI. Patients were divided into 2 groups regarding reduction -50% in ST 
      segment elevation after recanalization (rST): group I (n=37) with rST, and group 
      2 (n=68) without rST RESULTS: In group I we noticed higher CPK level 
      (2890,2+/-2404,2 U/I vs. 3980,9+/-2812,2 U/I, p<0,01). MB grade 3 was 
      significantly more often found in group 1 at 29 pts (78,4%) than in group 2 at 18 
      pts (23,5%), p<0,0001. MG grade 0 or 1 were more often in group 2 (57,3% vs. 
      2,7%, p<0,01). Ejection fraction (EF) was higher in group 1 after 3 days 
      (48,9+/-9,5% vs. 44,2+/-14,3%, p<0,01), as well as after 6 months (56,4+/-14,4% 
      vs. 49,5+/-14,3%, p=0,001). After 6 months end-diastolic volume (EDV) was higher 
      in group 2 (128,1+/-46,1 ml vs. 110,2+/-49,7 ml, p<0,008). CONCLUSIONS: 
      ST-resolution after successful PTCA is a simple and effective marker of 
      myocardial reperfusion after recanalization which correlates with angiographic 
      markers of tissue reperfusion. Early ST-segment resolution is connected with 
      better early and late LV function. Patients without early ST-segment elevation 
      resolution have a higher risk of LV remodelling.
