Background Myocardial infarction (MI) leads to complex changes in left ventricular (LV) haemodynamics. It remains unknown how four-dimensional (4D) acute changes in LV blood flow kinetic energy (KE) affect LV remodeling. We hypothesized that LV blood flow energetics are independently associated with adverse LV-remodeling. Methods In total, 69 revascularised ST-segment elevation MI patients were enrolled. All patients underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) examination within 2 days of the index event and at 3-month. CMR examination included cine, late gadolinium enhancement, and whole-heart 4D flow acquisitions. CMR analysis included: LV volumes, function, infarct size (indexed to body surface area), microvascular obstruction (MVO), two-dimensional, retrospective valve tracking derived mitral inflow metrics, and 4D blood flow KE components (Fig. 1). Adverse LV-remodeling was defined and categorized according to increase in LV end-diastolic volume: 10% (mild), 15% (moderate), and 20% (severe). Results Twenty-four patients (35%) developed mild, 17 patients (25%) moderate, 11 patients (16%) severe LV remodeling. Demographics and clinical history were comparable between patients with/without LV remodeling. In univariable logistic regression analysis, A-wave KE was associated with mild, moderate, and severe LV remodeling (p=0.03, p=0.02, p=0.02, respectively), whereas infarct size was associated with only mild LV remodeling (p=0.02). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, whilst the infarct size and A-wave KE were identified as independent markers for mild LV remodeling (p=0.03, p=0.09, respectively), A-wave KE was the only independent marker regarding moderate and severe LV remodeling (both, p&amp;lt;0.01). In ROC analysis for A-wave KE to be associated with the presence of adverse LV remodeling, the area under the curve was 0.67 for mild (p=0.02), 0.70 for moderate (p=0.01), 0.71 for severe (p=0.03) LV remodeling. Conclusion In patients with STEMI, LV hemodynamics assessment by LV blood flow KE demonstrated an incremental value to predict adverse LV-remodeling. A-wave KE early after acute MI had an independent effect on adverse LV remodeling. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding sources: Foundation.
