Cardiology Valvular followup

  1. Define Severe Aortic Stenosis
    • Vmax > 4 m/s
    • AVA < 1.0 cm2

    *AVA= aortic valve area
  2. Frequency of serial eval for severe aortic stenosis
    • Clinical eval yearly
    • Echo yearly
  3. Define Moderate Artic Stenosis
    • Vmax 3-4 m/s
    • AVA 1.0-1.5 cm2
  4. Frequency of serial eval for moderate Aortic stenosis
    • Clinical eval yearly
    • Echo every 1-2 y
  5. Define Mild Aortic stenosis
    • Vmax <3 m/s
    • AVA >1.5 cm2
  6. Frequency of serial eval for Mild Aortic Stenosis
    • Clinical eval yearly
    • Echo every 3-5 y
  7. Frequency of serial eval for Severe Mitral Stenosis
    • Clinical eval yearly
    • Echo yearly
  8. Define Severe Mitral Stenosis
    • MVA <1.0 cm2
    • MPG >10 mm Hg
    • PASP >50 mm Hg

    *MPG = mean pressure gradient, MVA = mitral valve area, ASP = pulmonary artery systolic pressure
  9. Define Moderate Mitral Stenosis:
    • MVA 1.0-1.5 cm2
    • MPG 5-10 mm Hg
    • PASP 30-50 mm Hg

    *MPG = mean pressure gradient, MVA = mitral valve area, ASP = pulmonary artery systolic
  10. Define Mild Mitral Stenosis
    • MVA >1.5 cm2
    • MPG <5 mm Hg
    • PASP <30 mm Hg

    *MPG = mean pressure gradient, MVA = mitral valve area, ASP = pulmonary artery systolic
  11. Define Severe Aortic Regurgitation:
    • VC >0.6 cm
    • ROA ≥0.3 cm2
    • RV ≥60 mL/beat
    • RF >50%
  12. Serial Evaluation for Severe Aortic Regurgitation
    EF >50%; LV size normal -- Clinical eval every 6-12 months, Echo yearly

    EF >50%; LV size increased -- Clinical eval every 6 month, Echo every 6 to 12
  13. Define Mild Aortic Regurgitation
    • VC <0.3 cm
    • ROA <0.10 cm2
    • RV <30 mL/beat
    • normal EF
  14. Serial evaluation and follow-up for Mild Aortic Regurgitation
    • Clinical eval yearly
    • Echo every 2-3 y
  15. Define Severe Mitral Regurgitation
    • VC ≥0.7 cm
    • ROA ≥0.4 cm2
    • RV ≥60 mL/beat
    • RF >50%

    *VC = vena contracta width, ROA = regurgitant orifice area; RV = regurgitant volume
  16. Recommended follow-up for Severe Mitral Regurgitation:
    • Clinical eval every 6-12 mo
    • Echo every 6-12 mo
  17. Define Mild Mitral Regurgitation:
    • VC <0.3 cm
    • ROA <0.10 cm2
    • RV <30 mL/beat)

    normal EF mL/beat); EF normal; LV size normal

    *VC = vena contracta width, ROA = regurgitant
