To quantify contractile dysfunction in patients with HF, investigators have proposed several indices of mechanical dyssynchrony, including percentile range of time to peak shortening (WTpeak), circumferential uniformity ratio estimate (CURE), and internal stretch fraction (ISF). The goal of this study was to compare the sensitivity of these indices to 4 major abnormalities responsible for cardiac dysfunction in dyssynchronous HF: dilation, negative inotropy, negative lusitropy, and dyssynchronous activation.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods and Results\u2014<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>All combinations of these 4 major abnormalities were included in 3D computational models of ventricular electromechanics. Compared with a nonfailing heart model, ventricles were dilated, inotropy was reduced, twitch duration was prolonged, and activation sequence was changed from normal to left bundle branch block. In the nonfailing heart, CURE, ISF, and WTpeak were 0.97\u00b10.004, 0.010\u00b10.002, and 78\u00b11 milliseconds, respectively. With dilation alone, CURE decreased 2.0\u00b10.07%, ISF increased 58\u00b147%, and WTpeak increased 31\u00b13%. With dyssynchronous activation alone, CURE decreased 15\u00b10.6%, ISF increased 14-fold (\u00b13), and WTpeak increased 121\u00b14%. With the combination of dilation and dyssynchronous activation, CURE decreased 23\u00b10.8%, ISF increased 20-fold (\u00b15), and WTpeak increased 147\u00b15%.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Dilation and left bundle branch block combined synergistically decreased regional cardiac function. CURE and ISF were sensitive to this combination, but WTpeak was not. CURE and ISF also reflected the relative nonuniform distribution of regional work better than WTpeak. These findings might explain why CURE and ISF are better predictors of reverse remodeling in cardiac resynchronization therapy.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1161\/circheartfailure.109.862144","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,5,14]],"date-time":"2010-05-14T02:19:04Z","timestamp":1273803544000},"page":"528-536","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":45,"title":["Ventricular Dilation and Electrical Dyssynchrony Synergistically Increase Regional Mechanical Nonuniformity But Not Mechanical Dyssynchrony"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"Roy C.P.","family":"Kerckhoffs","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Bioengineering (R.C.P.K., J.H.O., A.D.M.), Institute of Engineering in Medicine, and Department of Medicine (R.C.P.K.), University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, Calif; and Therapy Delivery Systems\/Leads Research (L.J.M.), Medtronic Inc, Mounds View, Minn."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jeffrey H.","family":"Omens","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Bioengineering (R.C.P.K., J.H.O., A.D.M.), Institute of Engineering in Medicine, and Department of Medicine (R.C.P.K.), University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, Calif; and Therapy Delivery Systems\/Leads Research (L.J.M.), Medtronic Inc, Mounds View, Minn."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrew D.","family":"McCulloch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Bioengineering (R.C.P.K., J.H.O., A.D.M.), Institute of Engineering in Medicine, and Department of Medicine (R.C.P.K.), University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, Calif; and Therapy Delivery Systems\/Leads Research (L.J.M.), Medtronic Inc, Mounds View, Minn."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lawrence J.","family":"Mulligan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Bioengineering (R.C.P.K., J.H.O., A.D.M.), Institute of Engineering in Medicine, and Department of Medicine (R.C.P.K.), University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, Calif; and Therapy Delivery Systems\/Leads Research (L.J.M.), Medtronic Inc, Mounds View, Minn."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mhj.2002.121264"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1540.8167.90311.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1152\/ajpheart.00340.2005"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1152\/ajpheart.00282.2003"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1152\/ajpheart.1999.276.3.H881"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/heart.86.4.397"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/JPROC.2006.871775"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hfc.2008.02.009"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/circulationaha.106.657270"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/circulationaha.106.643718"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.cir.0000035037.11968.5c"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1152\/ajpheart.00106.2008"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurjhf\/hfp107"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9149(02)03404-5"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcmg.2008.04.013"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.RES.61.3.318"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-540-72907-5_36"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10439-009-9774-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.RES.54.3.294"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jelectrocard.2003.09.015"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_22_2","first-page":"765","article-title":"Diminished post-rest potentiation of contractile force in human dilated cardiomyopathy","volume":"88","author":"Pieske B","year":"1996","unstructured":"Pieske B, S\u00fctterlin M, Schmidt-Schweda S, Minami K, Meyer M, Olschewski M, Holubarsch C, Just H, Hasenfuss G.
