Three-Dimensional Transthoracic Echocardiographic Evaluation of Tricuspid Regurgitation Severity using Vena Contracta Area in Comparison with Volumetric Method [PDF]
Background: In clinical practice, tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a valvular heart requirement that is frequent. Aim of the work: The objective is to utilize the 2D-determined EROA volumetric approach as a reference to establish 3D vena contracta area ...

Assessment of Mitral Regurgitation Severity by measuring of Vena Contracta Area Using Transesophageal and Transthoracic Three-Dimensional Echocardiography [PDF]
Background: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is one of the most common derangement of native valves and increases in prevalence with age. We aimed to compare the accuracy of the vena contracta area measurement (VCA) by 3-dimensional transesophageal (3D-TEE ...

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

Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiographic Vena Contracta Area for Grading Mitral Regurgitation: Severity Cut-offs From a Prospective Tunisian Cohort. [PDF]
Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is among the most common valvular heart diseases, but its echocardiographic quantification remains challenging, particularly in secondary MR and in some organic causes.

Quantification of rheumatic mitral stenosis severity with three-dimensional vena contracta area [PDF]
Introduction: Rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) is an important health issue in developing countries. Assessment of the correct mitral valve area (MVA) is essential for the timing of intervention.
