Abstract

Nowadays, the routine method of ischemia control in endovascular interventions on the coronary arteries is electrocardiography in standard and amplified leads from the patient’s limbs. The position of ECG electrodes on the patient’s chest reduces the visualization during radioscopy, and the execution of intracoronary ECG is associated with technical difficulties and is determined by the availability of consumables in the department. Academician L. Shevchenko proposed a unified method of invasive electrocardiography with positioning of the electrode in the coronary sinus in order to control intraoperative ischemia in endovascular interventions for coronary heart disease.

In order of study of information content of the ECG from the coronary sinus, the patients were divided into 2 groups: the main group — 10 patients with atherosclerosis of the anterior descending artery of the heart and the control group — 5 patients with native coronary bed. As part of the study routine diagnostic tests and operations, an electrode connected to the station for electrophysiological examination was implanted in the coronary sinus of all patients.

The proposed method of intraoperative monitoring of ischemia showed higher efficiency compared to the standard method of ECG assessment. This original technique opens up additional wide opportunities for the study of intraoperative myocardial ischemia in PCI and can serve as a highly informative engine for the study of myocardial physiology.

Keywords: coronary heart disease, intraoperative monitoring of ischemia, electrocardiography of the coronary sinus.
