Abstract: Objective To use tissue Doppler strain rate imaging to evaluate the impact of low dose dopamine and milrinone on systolic and diastolic function of the left ventricle of patients undergoing heart valve replacement. Methods Forty patients undergoing selective heart valve replacement in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between March and May 2011 were included in this study. All the patients were randomized into 2 groups with 20 patients in each group: milrione group and dopamine group. After anesthesia induction and before cardiopulmonary bypass setup, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was measured by echocardiography. Tissue Doppler strain rate imaging was used to measure the left ventricular lateral wall and midventricular segment from the four-chamber view, which was compared with Doppler parameters. Results LVEF, ratio of early-diastolic to end-diastolic velocity (E/A) of transmitral flow, ratio of mitral inflow velocity to early diastolic velocity in the annulus (E/Et) of both 2 groups were significantly different between before and after dopamine and milrinone administration (P<0. 05). In the milrinone group, 4 segments systolic peak velocity (Vs), 1 segment early diastolic peak velocity (Ve), 4 segments late diastolic peak velocity (Va), 3 segments Ve/Va ratio, 2 segments systolic peak strain rate (SRs), 2 segments late diastolic peak strain rate (SRa), and 3 segments early diastolic peak strain rate SRe/SRa ratio after dopamine and milrinone administration were significantly higher than those before dopamine and milrinone administration (P<0. 05). In the dopamine group, 4 segments systolic peak velocity (Vs), 1 segment Ve, 4 segments Va, 1 segment Ve/Va ratio, 2 segments SRs, 1 segment SRe, 1 segment SRa, and 1 segment SRe/SRa ratio after dopamine and milrinone administration were significantly higher than those before dopamine and milrinone administration (P<0.05). To compare the milrione group and dopamine group after medication administration, 2 segments Vs, 4 segments Va, 1 segment SRe, 1 segment SRa, 2 segments Ve/Va ratio, and 2 segments SRe/SRa ratio of the milrione group were significantly higher than those of the dopamine group (P<0.05), and 1 segment Vs, two segments SRs of the milrione group were significantly lower than those of the dopamine group (P<0.05). Conclusion Both milrinone and dopamine can improve left ventricular systolic function of perioperative patients undergoing heart valve replacement assessed by tissue Doppler strain rate imaging, while milrinone can improve the diastolic function of the left ventricle on the long axis more significantly.
