Abstract

Abstract : Objective . This study is to assess the application of combined detection of echocardiography and serum N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP) in the diagnosis of diastolic heart failure (DHF) and its effect on left ventricular morphology and diastolic function. Methods . Thirty patients with DHF with enrolled in our hospital between January 2019 and January 2021 were included in the experimental group, and thirty healthy individuals during the same period were included in the control group. The blood pressure, heart rate (HR), left ventricular morphology, diastolic function, and serum NT-ProBNP levels were compared between the two groups. Results . DHF was associated with higher levels of diastolic blood pressure (DBP), systolic blood pressure (SBP), HR, left ventricular diameter (LVD), interventricular septum thickness (IVST), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), left atrial volume index (LAVI), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), serum NT-ProBNP, maximum early ventricular filling velocity/early diastolic velocity of the mitral annulus (E/Ea) ratio, and aortic regurgitation (AR) and lower levels of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), flow propagation velocity (VP), and systolic/diastolic (S/D) ratio versus healthy subjects (all at P < 0.05 ). Conclusion . The combined detection of echocardiography and serum NT-ProBNP yields a high clinical value in the diagnosis of DHF deficiency, as it can accurately evaluate the patient's left heart morphology and diastolic function, so it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
