Abstract.
Objectives. To determine the prognostic value of the transmural dispersion repolarization index in children with left ventricular false tendons and to evaluate the contribution of this indicator to the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias.
Material and methods. 159 children aged 0-17 years have been examined.
Results. It has been found that the transmural dispersion repolarization index is higher in children with the combination of minor cardiac abnormalities and left ventricular false tendons compared to patients with the isolated character of microstigma (p<0,03).
The risk to develop hemodynamically significant atrioventricular blocks is higher (р<0,0001) in toddlers with left ventricular false tendons, at low values of Tpeak-Tend interval (Tp-e) and high indices of √RR; Tp-e /QT; PQ; QT; QTP. The probability of detecting hemodynamically significant sinoatrial blocks (p <0,001) is higher in boys born prematurely, in children with the increasing of √RR and Tp-e/QTc indices, increased duration of QTc, QTp intervals. The girls with the reduction of Tp-e and QTp intervals and increase of Tp-e/QT index on an electrocardiogram have the greatest risk of the presence of frequent supraventricular extrasystole (p <0,05).
Key words: prognostication, left ventricular false tendons, index of transmural dispersion repolarization, arrhythmias.
