Transcript of the video: Closure line of aortic valve on M-Mode echocardiogram, is seen as central line, while in bicuspid aortic valve, it is an eccentric closure, nearer to one of the walls of the aorta. That is an important feature of bicuspid aortic valve on M-Mode echocardiogram.

It is unknown whether MI also induces pathological remodelling of the aortic valve and alters aortic stenosis (AS) progression. We thus compared AS progression after an acute MI and in patients with/without history of MI, and assessed post-MI pathobiological changes within the aortic valve leaflets in a sheep model.

Impact of elevated left ventricular filling pressure on long-term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Open Heart

JUNE 21, 2022

Background Increase in left ventricular filling pressure (FP) and diastolic dysfunction are established consequences of progressive aortic stenosis (AS). However, the impact of elevated FP as detected by pretranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) echocardiogram on long-term outcomes after TAVR remains unclear.

Background:Peak aortic valve Doppler velocity, mean aortic valve gradient, and Doppler estimated aortic valve area are key measures recommended for assessing aortic stenosis severity. Failure to accurately diagnose severe aortic stenosis is critical.

Background: Symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) remains undertreated with high resultant mortality despite increased growth and availability of aortic valve replacement (AVR) since the advent of transcatheter therapies. The patient cohort had mean age of 7711 years, was 47% female, and had mean aortic valve area 0.80.1

The diagnostic coronary angiogram identified only minimal coronary artery disease, but there was a severely calcified, ‘immobile’ aortic valve. Aortic angiogram did not reveal aortic dissection. If you see this, you should Doppler the valve. In fact, bedside ultrasound might even find severe aortic stenosis.

Echocardiogram in parasternal long axis view shows dilated left ventricle, left atrium, aorta and a small portion of the right ventricle, which is usually the outflow region. Mitral valve leaflets seen in open position between the left ventricle and left atrium are thickened. Aortic valve is seen as grossly thickened and calcified.

The image shown here is an animated 2 dimensional echocardiogram. This one is an older mode known as time-motion mode or M-Mode echocardiogram. Planimetry of mitral valve area can be obtained in parasternal short axis view in case of mitral stenosis. Exact position and angulation will vary between individuals.

They found non-obstructive CAD, with only a 20% stenosis of OM2 and 10% RCA. The next morning the patient went for his routine echocardiogram, where the operator noticed a dilated aortic root at 5.47 cm with severe aortic insufficiency. A repeat ECG was performed and cardiology was re-consulted: Roughly unchanged.
