The reproducibility of breathing maneuvers as a vasoactive stimulus in the heart: an oxygenation-sensitive resonance imaging study.
Background: Endothelial dysfunction and impaired oxygenation of the heart is a hallmark of several diseases, including coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, and sleep apnea. Recent studies indicate that oxygenation-sensitive cardiovascular magnetic resonance (OS-CMR) imaging combined with breathing maneuvers may allow for assessing coronary vascular responsiveness as a marker for coronary vascular function in various clinical settings. However, despite the use of OS-CMR in evaluating tissue oxygenation, the reproducibility of these standardized, combined breathing maneuvers as a vasoactive stimulus has yet to be systematically assessed or validated. In this study, we aimed to assess the reproducibility of vasoactive breathing maneuvers to assess vascular function in a population of healthy volunteers.
Methods: Eighteen healthy volunteers were recruited for the study. Inclusion criteria were an age over 18 years and absence of any evidence or knowledge of cardiovascular, neurological, or pulmonary disease. MRI was performed on a clinical 3 T MRI system (MAGNETOM Skyra, Siemens Healthineers, Erlangen, Germany). The OS-CMR acquisition was performed as previously described (1 min hyperventilation followed by a maximal, voluntary breath-hold). Standard statistical tests were performed as appropriate.
Results: Data from 18 healthy subjects was analyzed. The healthy volunteers had a mean age of 42 ± 15 years and a mean BMI of 25.4 ± 2.8 kg/m2, with an average heart rate of 72 ± 11 beats per minute, and ten of whom (56%) were female. There were no significant differences between global myocardial oxygenation (%[Formula: see text] SI) after hyperventilation (HV1: - 7.82 [Formula: see text] 5.2; HV2: - 7.89 [Formula: see text] 6.4, p = 0.9) or breath-hold (BH1: 5.34 [Formula: see text] 3.1; BH2: 6.0 [Formula: see text] 3.3, p = 0.5) between the repeated breathing maneuvers. The Bland-Altman analysis showed good agreement (bias: 0.074, SD of bias: 2.93).
Conclusion: We conclude that in healthy individuals, the myocardial oxygenation response to a standardized breathing maneuver with hyperventilation and a voluntary breath-hold is consistent and highly reproducible. These results corroborate previous evidence for breathing-enhanced OS-CMR as a robust test for coronary vascular function.
