Myocardial strain, measured by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE), is a novel measure of subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) and may reflect myocardial aging. We evaluated the association between myocardial strain and frailty, a clinical syndrome of lack of physiologic reserve. Frailty was defined in participants of the Cardiovascular Health Study) as having 3 or more of the following clinical criteria: weakness, slowness, weight loss, exhaustion, and inactivity. Using STE data, we examined the cross-sectional (n=3,206) and longitudinal (n=1,431) associations with frailty among participants who had at least one measure of myocardial strain, left ventricular longitudinal strain (LVLS), LV early diastolic strain rate and left atrial reservoir strain, and no history of CVD or heart failure at the time of echocardiography. In cross-sectional analyses, lower (worse) LVLS was associated with prevalent frailty; this association was robust to adjustment for LV ejection fraction (adjusted OR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.07, 1.61 per 1 SD lower strain, p=0.007) and LV stroke volume (AOR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.08, 1,61 per 1 SD lower ] strain, p=0.007). In longitudinal analyses, adjusted associations of LVLS and LV early diastolic strain with incident frailty were: 1.35 (95% CI: 0.96, 1.89, p=0.086) and 1.58(95% CI: 1.11, 2.27, p=0.013 respectively). Participants who were frail and had the worst LVLS had a 2.2-fold increased risk of death (HR: 2.20, 95% CI: 1.81, 2.66, p<0.0001). In community-dwelling older adults without prevalent cardiovascular disease, worse LVLS by STE, reflective of subclinical myocardial dysfunction, was associated with frailty. Frailty and LVLS have an additive effect on mortality risk.
