The purpose of the study was to assess the function of fibres of the left ventricle (LV) and its dynamics after revascularization in patients with non Q myocardial infarction using standard Echocardiography (EchoCG) and Velocity Vector Imaging (VVI). Materials and methods: 34 patients with MI were examined. Echocardiography studies were performed on the ultrasound scanner AcusonX 300 (Siemens), a 1–5 MHz transducer before and in early period after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Results. Standard EchoCG showed systolic LV dysfunction before and after CABG, contractile dysfunction in 51 (8%) segment before the operation, with subsequent recovery of the function of the 28 (54%) of them. The effect of MI on LV function using VVI showed reducing strain (S) and normal strain rate (SR) of the longitudinal fibers, decrease S and SR of circular fibers and normal function of radial fibers. After GABG S and SR of longitudinal fibers has not changed, S and SR of the circular fibres are decreased. The function of radial fibers are normal. The study established a relationship between the level of LDH-1 and SR of the circular fibers of the LV prior to CABG. Increased level of LDH-1 in the early period after CABG can be a predictor of reduction of S and SR circular fibers. Conclusion: In patients with it is necessary to analyze not only the longitudinal and radial fibers, but also circular.
