Disturbed left ventricular inflow and ejection pattern in corrected atrioventricular septal defect patients assessed by 4DFlow MRI and particle tracing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background The normal pattern of left ventricular (LV) inflow and ejection of affects the efficiency of cardiac pumping performance. Altered inflow direction due to a corrected atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) may disturb this pattern leading to decreased efficiency. We aimed to quantitatively describe the LV blood flow pattern using 4-dimensional velocity-encoded cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (4DFlow MRI) and particle tracing in healthy volunteers and corrected AVSD patients.

Disturbed diastolic left ventricular inflow vortex ring formation in patients with corrected atrioventricular septal defect: quantitative three-dimensional vortex core analysis from 4DFlow MRI
Background Vortex formation in the left ventricle (LV) is suggested to contribute to efficient blood pumping and altered vortex formation is associated with diastolic dysfunction. Patients after atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) correction present abnormalities in valve morphology and subsequently develop altered inflow patterns (Calkoen et al. JMRI 2014), which may disturb normal vortex fo...
متن کاملThe pathway of left ventricular blood flow in healthy subjects and patients with corrected atrio-ventricular septum defect: an observational study using 4DFlow MRI and particle tracing
Background Blood entering the left ventricle (LV) through the left atrio-ventricular valve (LAVV) and exiting through the aorta is assumed to follow the most energy efficient pathway. In patients with a corrected atrio-ventricular septal defect (AVSD), this intra-cardiac blood flow pathway may be altered, due to the restricted opening of the LAVV. This might affect optimal LV function. Particle...
متن کاملImpact of disturbed diastolic vortex formation on viscous energy loss in the left ventricle: Quantitative 4D Flow MRI analysis of healthy controls and repaired atrioventricular septal defect patients
Background Vortex formation in the left ventricle (LV) is suggested to contribute to efficient blood pumping and minimization of energy loss. Patients after atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) repair may present abnormalities in valve morphology and subsequently develop altered LV inflow patterns [1], in which normal vortex formation may be disturbed. This may lead to energy loss. We aimed to...
متن کاملApical inflow is associated with increased energy loss during left ventricular diastole in patients with a repaired atrioventricular septal defect: a 4D flow MRI study
Background Patients after atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) repair have aberrant atrioventricular valve morphology resulting in a disorganized left ventricular (LV) inflow [1] with an increased amount of inflow reaching the apical level of the LV and retaining there during the subsequent systole [1]. This may elevate energy loss in LV flow due to friction. We aimed to evaluate the associati...
متن کاملCharacterization and quantification of dynamic left atrioventricular valve regurgitation after atrioventricular septal defect correction with 4D Flow MRI and retrospective valve tracking
Background Regurgitation of the left atrio-ventricular valve (LAVV) is common after atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) correction and up to 15% of the patients require surgery of the LAVV during follow-up. Reliable quantification of LAVV regurgitation after AVSD correction is essential for indicating surgical correction, but has shown to be difficult using echocardiography. 4DFlow MRI with r...
