Optimal Quantification of Functional Mitral Regurgitation: Comparison of Volumetric and Proximal Isovelocity Surface Area Methods to Predict Outcome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Effective orifice area (EOA) ≥0.2 cm2 or regurgitant volume (Rvol) ≥30 mL predicts prognostic significance in functional mitral regurgitation (FMR).

Radius of proximal isovelocity surface area in the assessment of rheumatic mitral stenosis: Connecting flow to anatomy and hemodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2015
Background: Echocardiographic assessment of left atrial pressure (LAP) in mitral stenosis (MS) is controversial. We sought to examine the role of the radius of the proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA-r) in the assessment of the hemodynamic status of ...

Quantification of Mitral Valve Regurgitation in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and Chihuahuas Using Radius of Proximal Isovelocity Surface Area [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
Mitral regurgitation (MR) resulting from myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is a prevalent condition in dogs, particularly smaller breeds like Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCSs) and Chihuahuas (CHHs).

Proximal isovelocity surface area method for assessment of mitral regurgitation severity: Principles, pitfalls, and future directions

open access: yesJournal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2021
Quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR) is important in clinical practice. As fluid approaches a finite circular orifice, concentric hemispherical shells are formed with gradually decreasing surface area and increasing velocity. Severity of MR by the

Three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiographic evaluation of tricuspid regurgitation severity using proximal isovelocity surface area: comparison with volumetric method [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2020
Background The quantification of tricuspid regurgitation(TR) using three-dimensional(3D) proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) derived effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) is feasible in functional TR.

Intraoperative Quantification of Severe Mitral Regurgitation: A Comparative Assessment of Two-Dimensional Flow Convergence, Three-Dimensional Volumetric, and Doppler-Based Methods [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Accurate quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR) is central to perioperative decision-making, yet the agreement and interchangeability of commonly used echocardiographic methods remain uncertain.

Assessment of chronic aortic regurgitation using end-diastolic flow reversal in the upper descending aorta: diagnostic accuracy and prediction of aortic valve surgery in a prospective echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]

open access: yesEcho Research and Practice
Background This study aimed to assess the utility of end-diastolic flow reversal in the upper descending aorta (EFR) for echocardiographic grading of aortic regurgitation (AR) severity, using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) as the reference ...

Prognostic implications of sex-related disparities in severity assessment of primary mitral regurgitation following intervention [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Heart
Background Current guidelines advocate for intervention in primary mitral regurgitation (PMR) based on detection of severe MR using standardised thresholds.
