    OBJECTIVES: To determine the influence of jet eccentricity and mechanism of mitral regurgitation, we examined 1) the relation between jet extent and severity of mitral regurgitation, and 2) the use of Doppler color flow imaging for quantitation of mitral regurgitation.

    BACKGROUND: Doppler color flow imaging is widely used to assess mitral regurgitation. However, whether, how and in which subgroups it can quantify regurgitation remain controversial.

    METHODS: In 80 patients with mitral ...

    It has previously been demonstrated that predictable changes occur in mitral flow velocities under different loading conditions. The purpose of this study was to relate changes in pulmonary venous and mitral flow velocities during different loading conditions as assessed by transesophageal echocardiography in the operating room. Nineteen patients had measurements of hemodynamics, that is, mitral and pulmonary vein flow velocities during the control situation, a decrease in preload by ...

    BACKGROUND: Myocardial late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) has been suggested to represent intramyocardial fibrosis and, as such, an adverse prognostic risk factor. We evaluated the characteristics of LGE on CE-MRI and explored whether LGE among patients with HCM was associated with genetic testing, severe symptoms, ventricular arrhythmias, or sudden cardiac death (SCD).

    OBJECTIVES: The study determined, in a population-based setting, whether dilatation of the thoracic aorta is an atherosclerosis-related process.

    BACKGROUND: The role of atherosclerosis in thoracic aortic dilatation and aneurysm formation is poorly defined.

    METHODS: The dimensions of the thoracic aorta were measured with transesophageal echocardiography in 373 subjects participating in a population-based study (median age 66 years; 52% men). The associations between clinical and ...

    OBJECTIVES: This study sought to describe the acute morphologic differences that result from septal myectomy and alcohol septal ablation using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.

    BACKGROUND: Surgical septal myectomy and alcohol septal ablation relieve left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in severely symptomatic patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

    METHODS: Cine and contrast-enhanced CMR images were obtained in HCM patients before and after septal myectomy (n = 24) ...

    BACKGROUND: Quantitation of valvular regurgitation remains a challenge. The accuracy of quantitative Doppler is controversial, and its ability to measure regurgitant volume is unknown; therefore, it is not widely used.

    METHODS AND RESULTS: In 120 patients (20 without regurgitation, 19 with aortic regurgitation, and 81 with mitral regurgitation), the stroke volume through the mitral annulus and left ventricular outflow tract were measured using pulsed-wave Doppler concurrently with left ...

    OBJECTIVES: We sought to determine the frequency and phenotype of mutations in myosin binding protein C (MYBPC3) in a large outpatient cohort of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) seen at our tertiary referral center.

    BACKGROUND: Mutations in MYBPC3 are one of the most frequent genetic causes of HCM and have been associated with variable onset of disease and prognosis. However, the frequency of mutations and associated clinical presentation have not been established in a ...

    BACKGROUND: Mitral valve repair has been suggested as providing a better postoperative outcome than valve replacement for mitral regurgitation, but this impression has been obscured by differences in baseline characteristics and has not been confirmed in multivariate analyses.

    METHODS AND RESULTS: The outcomes in 195 patients with valve repair and 214 with replacement for organic mitral regurgitation were compared using multivariate analysis. All patients had preoperative ...

    This study evaluated the diagnostic role of early diastolic mitral annular velocity (E') by tissue Doppler echocardiography for differentiating constrictive pericarditis from restrictive cardiomyopathy (primary restrictive cardiomyopathy and cardiac amyloidosis). The study group consisted of 75 patients (53 men, 22 women; mean age 62 years, range 27 to 87). Of these, 23 patients had surgically confirmed constrictive pericarditis, 38 had biopsy-proved systemic amyloidosis and typical ...

    OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to determine whether Doppler recording of superior vena cava flow velocities can differentiate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease from constrictive pericarditis in patients with a respiratory variation of > or = 25% in mitral inflow E velocity.

    BACKGROUND: Although respiratory variation (> or = 25%) in mitral E velocity is the main diagnostic criterion for constrictive pericarditis by Doppler echocardiography, it can also be present in chronic ...

    OBJECTIVES: This study sought to analyze the determinants of pulmonary hypertension in patients with left ventricular dysfunction.

    BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension in patients with left ventricular dysfunction is a predictor of poor outcome. The independent role of cardiac functional abnormalities in the genesis of pulmonary hypertension is unclear.

    METHODS: In 102 consecutive patients with primary left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction < 50%), systolic pulmonary artery ...

    Left ventricular filling pressures can be estimated reliably by combining mitral inflow early diastolic velocity (E) and annulus velocity (E'). An increased E/E' ratio reflects elevated filling pressures and may be useful in assessing an abnormal increase in filling pressures for patients with diastolic dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of supine bicycle exercise Doppler echocardiography for assessing left ventricular diastolic pressure during ...

    BACKGROUND: Left ventricular dysfunction is a frequent cause of death after successful surgical repair of mitral regurgitation. The role of preoperative echocardiographic left ventricular variables in the prediction of postoperative survival and thus their clinical implications remain uncertain.

    METHODS AND RESULTS: The survival of 409 patients operated on between 1980 and 1989 for pure, isolated, organic mitral regurgitation and with a preoperative echocardiogram (within 6 months of ...

    OBJECTIVES: This study attempted to determine the incidence, prognosis and predictability of postoperative left ventricular dysfunction in patients undergoing correction of mitral regurgitation.

    BACKGROUND: Left ventricular function in patients with mitral regurgitation is altered by loading conditions and is difficult to assess. Predictive value of preoperative variables on postoperative left ventricular function and the role of echocardiography are uncertain.

    METHODS: In 266 patients ...

    OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility, relation to other methods and significance of the effective regurgitant orifice area measurement.

    BACKGROUND: Assessment of the severity of valvular regurgitation (effective regurgitant orifice area) has not been implemented in clinical practice but can be made by Doppler echocardiography.

    METHODS: Effective regurgitant orifice area was calculated by Doppler echocardiography as the ratio of regurgitant ...
