Acute Mitral Regurgitation in Man
Four patients are presented who developed acute mitral regurgitation 5 days, 2, 3, and 18 months, respectively, before cardiac catheterization. The hemodynamic findings in the three early cases resemble those found in the presence of a constricting pericardium: left and right ventricular, as well as left and right atrial pressures, equilibrated during diastole. As expected, giant left atrial v ...

متن کاملMitral regurgitation.
Accurate clinical assessment of the severity of mitral regurgitation is often difficult, and left ventricular cine-angiocardiography is probably the most commonly used method of estimating it. It is therefore important to try to determine the accuracy of this method and to identify as far as possible any causes of error. We have attempted to do this in a series of 137 patients submitted to oper...
متن کاملMITRAL REGURGITATION Quantitation of mitral regurgitation by Doppler echocardiography
The evaluation and care of patients with mitral regurgitation would be facilitated by an easy, reproducible and noninvasive method that could quantitate the hemodynamic burden. In this study, we describe a new Doppler echocardiographic method that measures the regurgitant fraction and we compare it with angiographic and scintigraphic methods. A total of 27 patients with mitral regurgitation wer...
متن کاملThe Effects of Mitral Regurgitation
Instantaneous ascending aortic blood flow was recorded at operation in five patients with severe, pure mitral regurgitation, and in nine dogs in which mitral regurgitation was produced experimentally under controlled conditions. In both the patients and the experimental animals, the pattern of aortic flow was abnormal during mitral regurgitation: peak flow occurred early, the percentage of tota...
