Pulmonary valve echo motion in pulmonary regurgitation.
Four cases are presented to illustrate the echo patterns of pulmonary valve motion in patients with pulmonary regurgitation caused by pulmonary hypertension, idiopathic dilatation of the pulmonary artery, or congenital absence of the pulmonary valve or in association with pulmonary stenosis. Absence of the pulmonary 'a' wave, fluttering of the e-f slope, and midsystolic closure or 'notching' of...
متن کاملEchocardiographic findings in athletic horses with pulmonary regurgitation
BACKGROUND: Determining the clinical significance of cardiac murmurs is widely considered in equine practice. Pulmonary murmurs are commonly detected in athletic horses. Echocardiography plays a leading role in assessment of these murmurs. OBJECTIVES: Echocardiographic evaluation of horses with pulmonary regurgitation and determining the importance of pulmonary valve murmurs. METHODS: A total n...
متن کاملNorepinephrine induced pulmonary congestion in patients with aortic valve regurgitation.
The regulation of venous blood flow into the heart and the effects of blood volume redistribution upon cardiac function have not been amply defined. While enhanced venomotor tone induced by norepinephrine has been found to increase the volume of a central reservoir in the dog (1), such a volume shift has not been demonstrated in man, except inferentially by the finding of a decrease in the limb...
متن کاملMid-term results of bioprosthetic pulmonary valve replacement in pulmonary regurgitation after tetralogy of Fallot repair.
OBJECTIVES Pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) is performed to reduce right ventricular (RV) volume overload, resulting in improved ventricular function and clinical status. Significant pulmonary regurgitation (PR) after tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair could result in RV dysfunction, exercise intolerance, arrhythmia and sudden death. The present study was conducted to investigate the mid-term cl...
متن کاملisolated pulmonary valve endocarditis
infective endocarditis is one of the most severe complications of parenteral drug abuse. the outstanding clinical feature of infective endocarditis in intravenous drug abusers is the high incidence of right-sided valve infection, and the tricuspid valve is involved in 60% to 70% of the cases. we herein report a case of isolated pulmonic valve infective endocarditis with a native pulmonary valve.
