Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the characteristics of the left and right ventricular strain and the relationship between the biventricular function before and after 1 month of kidney transplantation. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive, controlled study was conducted on 40 patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease who were undergoing kidney transplantation, with clinical and echocardiography monitoring before and after 1 month of transplantation at Military Hospital 103, from November 2022 to May 2023. Results: Left ventricular function after 1 month of kidney transplantation improved compared to before transplantation. EF increased significantly (54.1 ± 7.6% and 58.5 ± 5.8%, p < 0.01). Left ventricular GLS after 1 month of kidney transplantation improved compared to before transplantation (-17.5 ± 3.5% and -20.9 ± 3.6%, p < 0.01). Right ventricular strain (RV4CSL, RVFWSL) after transplantation increased significantly compared to before transplantation (RV4CSL: -17.56 ± 4.82% and -21.14 ± 3.90 %, p < 0.01; RVFWSL: -20.59 ± 6.10% and -24.81 ± 4.58%). Right ventricular strain (RV4CSL, RVFWSL) had a moderate positive correlation with longitudinal left ventricular strain (r = 0.43 and 0.42, p < 0.01, respectively). Conclusion: After kidney transplantation, EF and GLS improved significantly. Right ventricular strain 1 month after transplantation increased significantly compared to before transplantation. Right ventricular strain was positively correlated with longitudinal left ventricular strain.
