Left ventricular (LV) performance during exercise was studied using RI angiography in 34 patients with hypertropic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and the results were compared with those from 13 patients with chest pain syndrome (CP) and 11 healthy controls (C). Maximal stress test was performed using a semi-supine bicycle ergometer with an initial work load of 20W and a stepwise increase of 20W every 3 minutes. RI angiograms were taken for 2 min at rest and in the last 2 min in each step. In 20 patients with HCM and in 7 patients with CP, the pulmonary artery (PA) diastolic pressure was monitored simultaneously during exercise.

At maximal exercise, the ejection fraction (EF) and stroke volume increased by 26±16% and 6±16% in C and by 11±16% and 6±14% in CP. In contrast, they decreased by 8±15% and 7±13% in HCM, with 71% of HCM patients failing to show any increase in EF during exercise. The end-diastolic volume reduced slightly but did not differ significantly among the 3 groups. The end-systolic volume decreased by 36±17% in C and by 15±24% in CP at maximal exercise, while it remained unchanged in HCM. In addition, LV function curve shifted to right-downward and an impairment in LV systolic performance seemed to deve-lop during exercise in patients with HCM, despite an increased EF at rest. The analysis of LV diastolic per-formance revealed that the PA diastolic pressure at maximal exercise was significantly higher in HCM than in CP (18.3±5.9 vs 10.7±6.4mmHg), although the responses of the LV end-diastolic volume and of the 1/3 filling rate did not differ in these two groups. These findings suggested that exercise developed a further depression of LV compliance, but that the LV filling impairment was compromised possibly by an elevation in the filling pressure.

The present study accordingly indicates that RI angio-graphy is a valuable method in patients with HCM for assessing abnormal LV performance during exercise,which is mainly induced by depressed systolic perfor-mance.
