eccentricity index identifies the severity of left to right shunt in patients with secundum type atrial septal defect
conclusions we found that ei and qp/qs ratio are significantly and positively associated and qp/qs ratio can be easily estimated by measuring ei in secundum type asd patients. background one of the inclusion criteria for applying atrial septal defect (asd) closing procedure is an increased pulmonary-to-systemic blood flow ratio (qp/qs). eccentricity index (ei) is associated with ventricular dys...
متن کاملQuantification of Left-to-Right Shunt in Secundum Atrial Septal Defect by PISA Method
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to quantitate the degree of left-to-right shunt in patients with secundum atrial septal defect (2o ASD) with the PISA method and compare the results with the usual continuity equation. Although the PISA method has been used extensively for the quantitative measurement of regurgitant severity and valve area in patients with valvular regurgitation and steno...
متن کاملSecundum atrial septal defect
A 20-year-old woman presented for evaluation of palpitations and one episode of near syncope after exertion. Her past medical history was remarkable only for a diagnosis of exercise-induced asthma. She was involved in competitive sports at her University, participating on the track team. She denied any chest discomfort, dyspnea at rest, or perceived exercise limitation. She had never had lower ...
متن کاملDetection of atrial septal defect with left-to-right shunt by inferior vena cava contrast echocardiography.
Contrast echocardiography was used before cardiac catheterisation in 37 patients with atrial septal defect and a left-to-right shunt and in 18 patients with a raised right atrial and ventricular pressure to assess the contrast echo effect in the inferior vena cava. Using two dimensional contrast apical echocardiography we found a negative contrast echo effect within the right atrium in many but...
متن کاملAtrial septal defect with right to left shunt despite normal pulmonary artery pressure.
A 74 year old woman had right to left shunting through an atrial septal defect despite normal right heart pressures. Acute volume expansion temporarily reduced the shunt. Contrast echocardiography and angiography demonstrated that this shunting occurred almost exclusively from the inferior vena cava. At surgery a redundant flap of septum secundum was found that was adjacent to the inferior vena...
