Left atrial filling volume can be used to reliably estimate the regurgitant volume in mitral regurgitation.

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1999
The objective was to analyze the accuracy and diagnostic value of the estimated regurgitant volume of mitral regurgitation using 1) left atrial volume variation during ventricular systole (left atrial filling volume) and 2) the percent of systolic pulmonary vein velocity integral compared with its total.Left atrial filling volume (LAfill), which ...

Sex difference in mitral valve prolapse regurgitant volume is resolved by normalization of regurgitant volume to left ventricular end-diastolic volume

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging
AbstractWomen with primary mitral insufficiency have a smaller regurgitant volume at the same regurgitant fraction than men. We hypothesized that normalizing regurgitant volume with left ventricular end-diastolic volume or allometric scaling would eliminate the difference in regurgitant volume between women and men.

Intraoperative Transesophageal Echocardiography Quantification of Mitral Regurgitation by Regurgitation Volume and Fraction Using 2D and 3D Techniques

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia
Background and Aims: Intraoperative quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR) is sometimes necessary to quantify the severity of incidentally detected MR during cardiac surgeries.

Quantification of mitral regurgitation using transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Both Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) have well-established role in mitral regurgitation (MR) quantification for optimal management strategy.

An orifice shape-based reduced order model of patient-specific mitral valve regurgitation

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2021
Mitral valve regurgitation (MR) is one of the most prevalent valvular heart diseases. Its quantitative assessment is challenging but crucial for treatment decisions.

The evolving role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance in the assessment of mitral valve prolapse

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP), characterized by a displacement > 2 mm above the mitral annulus of one or both bileaflets, with or without leaflet thickening, is a common valvular heart disease, with a prevalence of approximately 2% in western countries.

Determinants of regurgitant volume in mitral regurgitation: contrasting effect of similar effective regurgitant orifice area in functional and organic mitral regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2011
Quantitative assessment of the severity of mitral regurgitation (MR) is based on the calculation of the effective regurgitant orifice (ERO), a measure of lesion severity, and of the regurgitant volume (RVol), a measure of left ventricular volume overload.

New PASCAL Ace implant system in complex percutaneous mitral valve repair

open access: yesREC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2022
To the Editor, We present the case of a 73-year-old woman with arterial hypertension, morbid obesity (122 kg, body mass index = 44), and chronic lower limb swelling with recurrent skin infections due to multi-drug resistant microorganisms.

Echocardiographic evaluation of the functional mitral regurgitation after cardiac resynchronization therapy: which is the best approach? [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of the Balkan Medical Union, 2020
A strong association between functional mitral regurgitation severity and all-cause mortality and hospitalization was found in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular systolic dysfunction, with or without an implanted device.

Echocardiography vs. CMR in the Quantification of Chronic Mitral Regurgitation: A Happy Marriage or Stormy Divorce?

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Quantification of chronic mitral regurgitation (MR) is essential to guide patients’ clinical management and define the need and appropriate timing for mitral valve surgery.
