ACC AHA 2014 Recommendations for Medical Therapy for Aortic Regurgitation

1.

A
  1. Class 1
    1. Treatment of hypertention (BP > 140 mmHg) is recommended in patients with chronic AR
      1. Preferably with DHPR- CCB or ACE/ARB
  2. Class IIa
    1. ACE/ARB and beta blockers is reasonable in patients who has symptoms and /OR LV dysfunction, when surgery is not performed because of comorbidities

Q

Reccomendations for AI in

Asymptomatic

Chronic / Severe AI

LVEF < 50%

A

Class 1 indication for surgical AVR

2014 ACC/AHA

20
Q

Diagnosis of chronic Severe AI

A
  1. diagnosis of chronic severe AR r_equires_ evidence of LV dilation
21
Q

Reccomendations for:

asymptomatic

severe AR

Normal LVEF (>50)

LVESD > 50mm

A

AVR is reasonable

Class IIa rec (ACC/AHA 2014 )

22
Q

Reccomendation for

Moderate AI undergoing other cardiac surgery

A

AVR is reasonable

Class IIa Reccomendation (Class IIa ACC/AHA 2014)

23
Q

Reccomendations for

Severe AI

Asymptmatic

LVEF > 50%

LVEDD > 56

A

AVR is reasonable if surgical risk is low

Class IIb

(ACC/ AHA 2014 )

24
Q

Reccomendations for Mitral balloon valvuloplasty

A

level I evidence supports balloon valvuloplasty for:

an asymptomatic patient

moderate mitral valve stenosis,

resting pulmonary artery pressure is greater than 50 mmHg,

left atrial thrombus.

25
Q

Decision pathway if patient has

Echocardiographic Severe

Asymptomatic aortic stenosis

A
  1. if their LVEF (<50%) - Class 1A recommendation is for surgery
  2. if they are undergoing some other heart surgery – Class 1 rec is to fix it
  3. if they have super severe AS (Vmax > 4) classII is surgery
  4. if they have poor ETT then surgery
26
Q

ACC / AHA guidelines for -

tricuspid valve disease in the absence of mitral disease?

A

Class IIa - Severe TR in Symptomatic patients

Other issues:

TV annulus size > 40mm

RV function

Pulmonary HTN (>50mmHg at rest or 60mmHg exercise)

27
Q

when to replace the tricuspid valve in the setting of mitral valve surgery

A

Class I : Severe TR

Class II: Severe TR with pulmonary HTN OR tricuspid annulus > 40

28
Q

medical therapy for secondary mitral regurgitation

A

Chronic secondary MR and HF with reduced LVEF should receive GDMT including

ACE /ARB

BB

Aldosterone antagonist
