Asociación de los resultados positivos del SPECT de perfusión miocárdica con 99mTc-MIBI, con la presencia de dislipidemia en pacientes ≥ 40 años de edad.

The paper is aimed at establishing the association of the dyslipidemia with the positive results of the myocardial perfusion SPECT, for the optimization of use. 152 MPSPECT were analyzed, different days, for an average age of 58.32 years, 86 (56.6%), were males. Considering the presence of dyslipidemia, the patients were divided into two groups: dyslipidemia, n = 37(24.3%) and not-dyslipidemia, n = 115 (75.7%). No significant differences were present in the age average (59.59/57.90, p = 0.284), in the body mass index (24.85/25.03, p=0.739), nor in the frequency of mature. Therefore, only dyslipidemia contributes to therefore the additional risk. Result: 102 (67.1%) MPSPECT were positive. In the comparison among groups no significant difference in the incidence of positive results was observed (67.60/67.00, p = 0.945), and the same situation remained when the groups were subdivided into symptomatic and asymptomatic. As a result of the study, it was concluded that dyslipidemia does not represent a significant risk of ischemic cardiopathy in patients within the ages of risk, therefore there is no significant association with the positive results of the SPECTPM, within patients in ages of risk.
