- BACKGROUND: The Bernheim 'a' wave in the jugular venous pulse of patients with left ventricular hypertrophy has been shown to reflect accentuated right atrial activity. OBJECTIVE: To study possible atrial interaction in patients with right and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction due to significant pulmonary (PS) and aortic valvular stenosis (AS) respectively. METHODS: We studied 41 PS patients (age 36+/-10 year) and 41 AS patients (age 35+/-12 year) and their results were compared with those of 27 controls (age 30+/-7 year). RV and LV filling were recorded by conventional PW Doppler. Biventricular segmental function was studied using the PW tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) and M-mode techniques. RESULTS: The 2 patient groups had similar degree of ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Long axis function was impaired while global systolic function was preserved in the pressure-overloaded ventricle. Patients had higher peak late filling (A wave) and TDI late diastolic (Aa) velocities recorded in the disease-free ventricles despite having similar peak early filling velocities (E wave), E wave deceleration time and E/Ea ratios were not different from controls (p>0.05 for all). Such accentuation of atrial activity (A wave) was moderately correlated with the degree of contralateral ventricular outflow tract obstruction (p<0.001 for both). CONCLUSIONS: Long axis function is more sensitive than global function in revealing myocardial dysfunction in the pressure-overloaded ventricles. The increased contralateral atrial systolic activity suggests an evidence for atrial interaction in the form of 'cross talk'.
