  2. Aortic valve area calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aortic_valve_area_calculation

    In cardiology, aortic valve area calculation is an indirect method of determining the area of the aortic valve of the heart. The calculated aortic valve orifice area is currently one of the measures for evaluating the severity of aortic stenosis. A valve area of less than 1.0 cm 2 is considered to be severe aortic stenosis. [1] [2]

    Heyde's syndrome; A stenotic aortic valve: Specialty: Cardiology, general surgery, Hematology: Symptoms: Aortic valve stenosis symptoms: Chest pain (angina) or tightness Shortness of breath, especially during exertion or when lying down Fatigue or weakness Irregular heartbeat or heart palpitations Dizziness or fainting episodes Gastrointestinal bleeding symptoms: Occult (hidden) or overt ...

    Aortic stenosis; In the center an aortic valve with severe stenosis due to rheumatic heart disease. The valve is … surrounded by the aorta. The pulmonary trunk is at the upper right. The right coronary artery, cut lengthwise, is at the lower left. The left main coronary artery, also cut lengthwise, is on the right. Specialty: Cardiac surgery ...

  5. Transthoracic echocardiogram - Wikipedia

    In this view, the mitral valve and aortic valve are in view and is roughly similar to the parasternal long axis. In this view, the LV outflow tract is best in alignment with the probe and so gives the best estimate of flow through the LVOT, which is commonly used to estimate aortic stenosis. Structures: Aortic valve; Mitral valve; Left ventricle

  6. Handgrip maneuver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handgrip_maneuver

    The effect of reducing the intensity in forward flowing murmurs is much more evident in aortic stenosis rather than mitral stenosis. The reason for this is that there is a larger pressure gradient across the aortic valve. [6] A complementary maneuver for differentiating disorders is the Valsalva maneuver, which decreases preload. [7]

  7. Concentric hypertrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentric_hypertrophy

    In the heart, concentric hypertrophy is related to increased pressure overload of the heart, often due to hypertension and/or aortic stenosis. The consequence is a decrease in ventricular compliance and diastolic dysfunction , followed eventually by ventricular failure and systolic dysfunction .
