# Defining Diastole 定义舒张期
- Diastology 诊断学
- The science and art of characterising left ventricular relaxation, filling dynamics, and their integration into clinical practice.
描述左心室舒张、充盈动力学及其融入临床实践的科学和艺术。
# What is Diastole
The relationship among LV, LA, and aortic (Ao) pressures and M-mode tracings of the aortic and mitral valve are shown.
显示了 LV、LA 和主动脉(Ao)压力与主动脉瓣和二尖瓣 M 型轨迹之间的关系。Time from aortic valve to mitral valve closure.
从主动脉瓣关闭到二尖瓣关闭的时间,都称为舒张期The isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) is the interval from aortic valve closure to mitral valve opening. During this interval, LV pressure declines rapidly.
等容舒张时间(IVRT)是从主动脉瓣关闭到二尖瓣打开之间的时间间隔。在此期间,左室压力迅速下降。MV opens when LV pressure < LA pressure
当 LV 压力 < LA 压力时,MV 打开Rapid early filling (E) (~80% OF FILLING)
MV 打开后,左室进行早期的快速充盈 (也就是超声心动图上的 E 波) (约充盈 80%)Diastasis (equalization of pressure b/w atrium and ventricle with little movement of blood)
E 波后续的一段时间为舒张期,此时心室心房压力达到平衡,二尖瓣接近关闭状态,心房和心室间血液流动很少Late diastolic filling 2/2 atrial systole (A) - atrial pressure > vent pressure again, mitral leaflets open again and blood fills LV (20%).
舒张期晚期,充盈 2/2 心房收缩 (就是超声心动图上的 A 波) - 此时心房压力 > 心室压力,二尖瓣叶再次张开,血液充盈左室 (20%)。A rapid rise in LV pressure occurs during the isovolumic contraction time (IVCT), the interval between mitral valve closure and aortic valve opening.
等容收缩时间(IVCT)是从二尖瓣关闭到主动脉瓣打开之间的时间间隔。在此期间,左室压力迅速升高。
RV diastole is similar to LV but duration is shorter.
RV 舒张期与 LV 相似,但持续时间较短。
The relationship between LV volume and the diastolic LV Doppler filling pattern is shown.
显示了 LV 体积与舒张期 LV 多普勒充盈模式之间的关系。Early rapid filling coincides with the E velocity, followed by diastasis (with little or no flow from the LA to the LV), and atrial contraction (which coincides with the late diastolic A velocity).
早期快速充盈与 E 峰速度一致,随后是舒张期 (从左房到 LV 的血流很少或没有血流) 和心房收缩 (与舒张期晚期 A 峰一致)。The Doppler velocity curve, in effect, is the first derivative of the LV volume curve.
多普勒速度曲线实际上是左室容量曲线的一阶导数。Ao, Aortic; MV, mitral valve.
Ideally, the LV is compliant in diastole to fill from a low LA pressure.
理想情况下,LV 在舒张期具有良好的顺应性,较低的 LA 压力即可使左室充盈。LV is stiff in systole to eject the Stroke volume against systolic BP.
左室在收缩期有一定的硬度,这样可以对抗收缩压进行射血。Abnormal LV diastolic function will lead to increased LV diastolic pressure PCWP > 12(10), LVEDP > 16(12).
当左室舒张功能异常,可导致左室舒张压升高,PCWP > 12(10),LVEDP >16(12)。PCWP: pulmonary capillary wedge pressure 肺毛细血管楔压;LVEDP: 左室舒张末压

左室舒张充盈正常模式。 - Pulsed Doppler recording in an apical four-chamber view with the sample volume positioned at the mitral leaflet tips (left) is used to measure E velocity, A velocity, and the deceleration time (arrow).
在心尖四腔视图中脉冲多普勒记录,并放置取样容积放在二尖瓣叶尖 (左) 用于测量 E 峰速度,A 峰速度和减速时间 (箭头)。 - The flow signal recorded with the sample volume positioned at the level of the mitral annulus level (right) is used for measurement of atrial flow duration.
用位于二尖瓣环水平 (右) 的取样容积记录的血流信号用于测量心房血流持续时间。 - If transmitral stroke volume is calculated, the annular flow signal is used for the velocity-time integral.
如果计算二尖瓣搏出量,则使用环状血流信号进行速度 - 时间积分。 - DFP, Diastolic filling period; DT, deceleration time; IVRT, isovolumic relaxation time; VTI, velocity-time integral.

Careful with influencing factors on PV flow 注意以下影响因素

- Advanced age 高龄
Pulm vein flow velocity Tips/Tricks 测量技巧
- Use sweep speeds of 100mm/s 扫描速度
- Perform with apnoea 呼吸暂停
- MR may annul or even reverse S velocity
二尖瓣反流可以抵消甚至反转 S 速度- Hence do not use if there is significant MR
因此,如果有明显的 MR,请不要测量
- Hence do not use if there is significant MR
- Do not use immediately after AF DCCV(direct current cardioversion) due to atrial stunning
由于心房顿抑,不要在房颤直流电复律后立即测量 - Be wary of relative degrees of pulm vein stenosis if the patient has had a RF(radiofrequency) AF ablation in past.
如果患者过去做过房颤射频消融术,要注意肺静脉狭窄的相对程度。
# Tissue Doppler Imaging (e') 组织多普勒
心尖四腔,取样线放置在二尖瓣瓣环处,进行瓣环运动速度的描绘
可以得到
- 收缩期 s' 波
- 舒张早期 E' 波,与经二尖瓣血流频谱图中的 E 波出现时相一样,在 t 波之后
- 舒张晚期 A' 波,出现在 p 波之后
E/e' ratio (combo of transmitral flow velocity and annular velocity) is best parameter for predicting mean LVEDP (< 8 nl, > 15 abnl); but cannot be used in isolation!
E/e' 比率 (跨二尖瓣血流速度和二尖瓣环运动速度的组合) 是预测平均左室舒张末压 (<8nL,>15abnl) 的最佳参数,但不能单独使用!This is the best correlate with NORMAL LVEF and no mitral annular issue.
射血分数正常以及无二尖瓣瓣环问题时,E/e' 比率有很好的相关性

E/e' ratio | normal | < 8 |
abnormal | > 15 |
- Tips with TDI 注意事项
- Mitral annular calcification or a mitral annular ring will reduce velocities
二尖瓣环钙化或二尖瓣环植入,会减慢运动速度,减低 e' 值 - Reduced LVEF, especially local infarction will lead to inaccurate assessment
左室射血分数降低,尤其是取样线处有局部梗死,将导致评估不准确 - e' will be increased with significant degrees of primary MR
e' 在显著的原发性二尖瓣反流时出现增高 - Reduced e' is consistent across all degrees of diastolic dysfunction and is an early marker; however also a normal part of ageing.
所有程度的舒张功能障碍中 e' 都是降低的,因此 e' 的下降可作为舒张功能障碍的早期标志;但随着年龄的增长,e' 也会出现下降。
- Mitral annular calcification or a mitral annular ring will reduce velocities
# Mitral inflow Propagation Velocity (Vp) 二尖瓣血流传播速度
Propagation velocity (dashed line) recorded with the color Doppler M-mode cursor positioned in the center of the mitral annulus in an apical four-chamber view.
在心尖四腔切面下,用位于二尖瓣环中央的彩色多普勒 M 型光标记录传播速度 (虚线)。The slope of the Doppler flow as it moves from the annulus (bottom of scale) to the apex (top of the scale) reflects the rate of LV relaxation.
当多普勒血流从环部 (标尺底部) 移动到心尖 (标尺顶部) 时,其斜率反映了左室舒张的速度。Colour M mode 100mm/s 彩色 M 模式
Shift colour flow baseline down so highest velocity is blue.

# Approch to the Patient 患者评估
When LV size, wall thickness, and ejection fraction (EF) are normal, further evaluation of diastolic function is needed only in the presence of LA enlargement or an abnormal E/A ratio for age.
当 LV 大小,壁厚和射血分数 (EF) 正常时,仅在 LA 增大或年龄 E/A 比率异常的情况下,才需要进一步评估舒张功能。In patients with ventricular hypertrophy or dilation with a normal ejection fraction, diastolic function should be fully evaluated, particularly if clinical concern exists that diastolic dysfunction is the cause of symptoms.
对于射血分数正常的心室肥大或扩张患者,应全面评估舒张功能,尤其是当临床关注舒张功能障碍是症状的原因时。When ejection fraction is reduced, the first step is to evaluate for elevated filling pressures.
当射血分数降低时,第一步是评估是否有较高的充盈压力。If simple criteria for elevated filling pressures are not present, a more complete evaluation of diastolic function is appropriate.
如果不符合充盈压力升高的简单标准,则应对舒张期功能进行更全面的评估。DT, Deceleration time; IVRT, isovolumic relaxation time; LVH, LV hypertrophy; PVD, peak diastolic velocity; PVS, peak systolic velocity.
根据左室的大小、室壁厚度和 EF 值进行不同的评估
二尖瓣的血流频谱图和组织多普勒是必须描绘的,尽量区分舒张功能障碍的严重程度
如果血流频谱和组织多普勒无法评估,可以加用 IVRT 和 肺静脉血流频谱
