General anesthesia with remifentanil for cesarean section in a parturient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation
Valvular heart lesions have deleterious effects on hemodynamics in parturients during pregnancy. Cesarean section with an opioid-based general anesthesia is used to alleviate the adverse effects. We described a case of a 28-year-old primigravida at 37 weeks’ gestation with a diagnosis of severe mitral regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation, and pulmonary hypertension in active labor. Cesarean s...
متن کاملExcessive respiratory variation in tricuspid regurgitation systolic velocities in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation.
AIMS Respiratory changes in tricuspid regurgitation (TR) systolic velocities are occasionally demonstrated by Doppler echocardiography in patients with TR. We tested the hypothesis that excessive respiratory changes in TR velocities are diagnostic of severe TR. METHODS AND RESULTS The difference between the maximal (expiratory) and minimal (inspiratory) TR systolic velocities during spontaneo...
متن کاملTricuspid valve tethering predicts residual tricuspid regurgitation after tricuspid annuloplasty.
BACKGROUND Tricuspid valve (TV) annuloplasty is recommended for functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR), which is caused by TV annulus dilatation and tethering of the leaflets. However, the impact of TV deformations on the outcome of TV annuloplasty remains unknown. The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship between preoperative TV deformation and residual TR after TV annuloplas...
متن کاملAetiology of tricuspid regurgitation.
BACKGROUND Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is regarded as a secondary disorder. Aim of the study was to know what percentage is secondary to heart and lung disease and its prevalence in normal adults. METHODS Two hundred and 30 adults with clinically detectable TR were studied clinically to know the cause of TR. RESULTS Thirteen percent of the adults were normal without any detectable cause fo...
متن کاملManagement of tricuspid regurgitation
Secondary tricuspid regurgitation is the most frequent type of tricuspid insufficiency in western countries. Its surgical treatment is still an object of debate both in terms of timing and surgical techniques. Until recently, the avoidance of surgery for tricuspid repair was commonly accepted in patients with less than severe secondary tricuspid regurgitation undergoing left-sided valve surgery...
