PG - 310-316 LID - 10.7507/1001-5515.202011004 [doi] AB - This study aims to explore the intraventricular pressure difference (IVPD) within left ventricle in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) by using the relative pressure imaging (RPI) of vector flow mapping (VFM). Twenty patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) and thirty control subjects were enrolled in the study. Systolic and diastolic IVPD derived from VFM within left ventricle and conventional echocardiographic parameters were analyzed. It was found that the B-A IVPD of left ventricle in PAF patients showed the same pattern as controls-single peak and single valley during systole and double peaks and double valleys during diastole. Basal IVPD was the main component of base to apex IVPD (B-A IVPD). The isovolumetric systolic IVPD was associated with early systolic IVPD, early systolic IVPD was associated with late systolic IVPD, and late systolic IVPD was associated with isovolumic diastolic IVPD (all P < 0.05). The B-A IVPD and basal IVPD during isovolumetric systole, early systole, late systole and isovolumetric diastole in PAF patients significantly decreased (all P < 0.05). The study shows that the B-A IVPD pattern of the PAF group is the same as controls, but systolic B-A IVPD and basal IVPD are significantly reduced in PAF patients. VFM-derived RPI can evaluate left ventricular IVPD in PAF patients, providing a visually quantitative method for evaluating left ventricular hemodynamic mechanics in the patients with PAF.
