Value of Echocardiography and 2D-STI in the Diagnosis of Hypertensive Heart Disease in the Elderly
Objective To explore the effects of echocardiography and two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging(2D-STI)in the diagnosis of elderly hypertensive heart disease.Methods 60 elderly patients with hypertensive heart disease were selected as the observation group,and 60 patients with simple hypertension were selected as the control group.The echocardiography and 2D-STI parameters of the two groups were compared.The 2D-STI parameters of patients with different degrees of cardiac function injury in the observation group were compared.Results The mSRa and LVEDD of the observation group were higher than those of the control group,and the mSRe,mSRs and LVEF were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).In the observation group,the mSRa in the mild group was lower than that in the severe group,and mSRe and mSRs were higher than those in the severe group(P<0.05).Conclusions Echocardiography and 2D-STI can evaluate the cardiac function and disease severity of elderly patients with hypertensive heart disease.
