Electric interventions are used to terminate arrhythmia. However, myocardial injury from the electrical intervention can follow unique pathways and it is unknown how this affects regional ventricular function. This study investigated the impact of transthoracic electrical shocks on systolic and diastolic myocardial deformation. Ten healthy anaesthetized female swine received five transthoracic shocks (5 × 200 J) and six controls underwent a cardiovascular magnetic resonance exam prior to and 5 h after the intervention. Serial transthoracic shocks led to a global reduction in both left (LV, - 15.6 ± 3.3% to - 13.0 ± 3.6%, p < 0.01) and right ventricular (RV, - 16.1 ± 2.3% to - 12.8 ± 4.2%, p = 0.03) peak circumferential strain as a marker of systolic function and to a decrease in LV early diastolic strain rate (1.19 ± 0.35/s to 0.95 ± 0.37/s, p = 0.02), assessed by feature tracking analysis. The extent of myocardial edema (ΔT1) was related to an aggravation of regional LV and RV diastolic dysfunction, whereas only RV systolic function was regionally associated with an increase in T1. In conclusion, serial transthoracic shocks in a healthy swine model attenuate biventricular systolic function, but it is the acute development of regional diastolic dysfunction that is associated with the onset of colocalized myocardial edema.
