Abstract

Introduction: Coronary heart disease continues to be the leading cause of morbidity and death worldwide. The cardiac dysfunction known as chronic coronary syndrome is caused by atherosclerosis-related obstruction or constriction of coronary arteries. Currently, One interesting non-invasive technique is GLS assessment, which has shown to be useful in predicting coronary lesions in chronic coronary syndrome patients. This study aims to evaluated the correlation between myocardial strain based on 2-D Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography and the severity of coronary lesions in chronic coronary syndrome patients at Haji Adam Malik Hospital Medan Method: This research is an analytical observational study with a cross sectional design on patients who diagnosed with chronic coronary syndrome and treated at H Adam Malik General Hospital Medan which met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Sampling was carried out starting in January to December 2023. In bivariate analysis, the Fisher Exact test is used if the data is not normally distributed, and the chi square test is used if the data is normally distributed. P values less than 0.05 indicate statistical significance in data analysis using computer statistical methods. Results: Myocardial global longitudinal strain (GLS) based on 2-D Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography was significantly associated with the severity of coronary lesions as measured by syntax score in chronic coronary syndrome patients (p value  0.0001, OR 2.732, 95% CI 1, 81-4,11). As a predictor of coronary lesions severity based on the Syntax score in patients with chronic coronary syndrome, the global longitudinal strain (GLS) cut-off value of -17.37 demonstrates a sensitivity of 92.9% and a specificity of 83.6%. Conclusion: Myocardial global longitudinal strain (GLS) with a cut-off value of -17.37 can be used as a predictor coronary lesions severity in chronic coronary syndrome patients with a sensitivity of 92.9% and a specificity of 83.6%.

Abstract

Introduction: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a severe cardiovascular condition requiring urgent treatment through Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PPCI). However, PPCI increases the risk of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy (CIN), a condition characterized by a significant rise in serum creatinine levels. To minimize the risk of CIN, identifying patients at high risk is essential. This study evaluates the TIMI Risk Index (TRI) as a predictor of CIN in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI at Haji Adam Malik Hospital, Medan. Methods: This observational analytical study employed a cross-sectional design, focusing on STEMI patients with symptoms lasting less than 12 hours who underwent PPCI between January 2023 and December 2024. Participants were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Bivariate analysis was used, with the chi-square test for normally distributed data and the Fisher exact test for non-normally distributed data, with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: The results indicated that TRI effectively predicted CIN occurrence, with a p-value of 0.0001, an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.834, and a 95% confidence interval (CI) of 0.752–0.916. A TRI cut-off score of 23.47 demonstrated a sensitivity of 77.3%, specificity of 77%, a positive predictive value (PPV) of 47.05%, and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 91.8%. Conclusion: In conclusion, the TRI with a cut-off score of 23.47 is a reliable tool for predicting CIN in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI, offering high sensitivity, specificity, and NPV, which can help improve clinical outcomes by identifying at-risk patients.
