Summary: | Background
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most accurate imaging technique for left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) quantification, but as yet the prognostic value of LVEF assessment at any time after ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) for subsequent major adverse cardiac event (MACE) prediction is uncertain.
Purpose
To explore the prognostic impact of MRI‐derived LVEF at any time post‐STEMI to predict subsequent MACE (cardiovascular death or re‐admission for acute heart failure).
Study Type
Prospective.
Population
One thousand thirteen STEMI patients were included in a multicenter registry.
Field Strength/Sequence
1.5‐T. Balanced steady‐state free precession (cine imaging) and segmented inversion recovery steady‐state free precession (late gadolinium enhancement) sequences.
Assessment
Post‐infarction MRI‐derived LVEF (reduced [r]: 3 months of follow‐up.
Statistical Tests
Multi‐state Markov model to determine the prognostic value of each LVEF state (r‐, mr‐ or p‐) at any time point assessed to predict subsequent MACE. A P‐value |
