Amaç: Semptomu olmayan ve rastlantısal olarak ejeksiyon
fraksiyonu (EF) düşük saptanan hastalarda etiyolojinin
aydınlatılması için rutin olarak koroner anjiografi
(KAG) önerilmemektedir. Ancak ejeksiyon fraksiyonunu
düşüklüğü nedeninin iskemik kaynaklı olması kötü prognozla
ilişkilidir ve etiyolojinin aydınlatılması amaçlı KAG
yapılması faydalı olabilir. Çalışmamızda semptomu olmayan
ve sol ventrikül EF si düşük olup KAG uygulanan hastalarda
koroner arter hastalığı sıklığı araştırılmıştır.
Yöntemler: Düşük ejeksiyon fraksiyonunun aydınlatılması
amacıyla hastanemizde KAG yapılan 100 hasta çalışmaya
alınmıştır. Bu hastaların hiçbirisinin kalp yetmezliği
semptomu ya da göğüs ağrısı bulunmamaktaydı.
Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 61 ve erkek cinsiyet
oranı %75’dir. Ortala EF %33,8 dır. KAG sonrası iskemik
etiyoloji %26 olarak saptanmıştır. 19 hasta girişim yapılan
tedavi grubuna alınmış ve bu hastaların 8 ine koroner
arter bypass cerrahisi (KABG) uygulanmış, 11 hastaya
ise stent implante edilmiştir.17 hastada koroner arterler
normal saptanmıştır.64 hastada ise medikal tedavi kararı
alınmıştır. Bu gruptaki hastaların 7 si iskemik olan gruba,
57 si ise iskemik olmayan gruba dahil edilmiştir.
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda göğüs ağrısı ya da kalp yetersizliği
semptomu olmayan, ejeksiyon fraksiyonu düşük hastalarda
koroner arter hastalığı sıklığı değerlendirilmiştir.

Coronary Artery Disease Frequency in Asymptomatic Low Ejection Fraction Patients

Öz

Objective: In asymptomatic and incidentally detected low ejection fraction patients, performing a coronary angiog­raphy (CAG) is not recommended routinely. But the prog­nosis for patients with ischemic etiology remains worse and performing CAG for the elucidation of the etiology may be beneficial. In our study, in asymptomatic and low EF patients who underwent CAG, coronary artery disease frequency was investigated. Methods: Totally 100 coronary angiography were per­formed at our institution for the elucidation of the etiology. The patients do not have angina or heart failure symp­toms. Results: The median age was 61 years with 75% male ratio. Mean ejection fraction was 33.8%. Ischemic etiol­ogy was 26% after coronary angiography. The prevalence of CABG was 8 and stenting was 11 patients, CABG and stenting group was defined as invasive therapy group with 19 patients. The prevalence of normally coronary artery was 17. The prevalence of medical therapy deci­sion was 64 patients. The medical therapy patients were divided into two groups. 7 patients were in ischemic group and 57 patients were in non-ischemic group. Conclusion: In our study, in patients without chest pain or symptoms of heart failure with low ejection fraction, in­cidence of coronary artery disease were evaluated.
