Echo in AF

Question 1

Mitral E-Wave DT in AF

Answer 1

DT < 120 ms or <160 if reduced EF

= PCWP > 20

Question 2

DTI E/E’ ratio in AF for PCWP > 15

Answer 2

E/E’ > 11 = PCWP > 15

Question 3

PV flow DT for PCWP <=12

Answer 3

DT > 220 ms = PCWP <= 12

Question 4

IVRT for DD in AF

Answer 4

<= 65 ms = diastolic dysfunction

Question 5

Normal color m-mode propagation velocity (vP)

Answer 5

> 50 m/s

Question 6

E/Vp for high LVEDP/BNP in AF

Answer 6

>= 1.4 = LVEDP >15
>1.7 = BNP >= 200
