A 76-year-old woman with a history of double valve replacement (Aortic and mitral valves) for rheumatic heart disease, presented with acute dyspnea after a switch from Warfarin to LMWH before a planned bone marrow biopsy. The investigations revealed a stuck aortic prosthetic valve ,that showed a prohibitive gradient of more than 50 mmhg.

During medical school, one of the classic bedside exam questions we get is how to differentiate the valve issues of aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation, which produce similar but different murmurs when you listen with a stethoscope. “How can you tell the difference between aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation at the bedside?”

However, if you freeze the ultrasound clip and scroll forwards and backwards to find a time during the clip where the patient’s mitral valve is open, you know the heart is filling, and is therefore in diastole. It is difficult to tell if there is collapse during diastole due to the patient’s tachycardia. As per Drs.

Abstract Introduction Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common clinical condition in the general population. A subgroup of patients with MVP may experience ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (“arrhythmic mitral valve prolapse” [AMVP]) but how to stratify arrhythmic risk is still unclear. mm; p  < .0001), mm; p  < .0001),
