Hemodynamics Review Flashcards
Stroke volume
LVOT area * LVOT VTI
Stroke volume index
SV / BSA
AVA using continuity
LVOT VTI * LVOT area / AV VTI
MR flow / instantaneous flow rate
area x aliasing velocity
for area, use 2pir2
ERO for MR
ERO = MR flow / MR velocity
Quick ERO using PISA
Aliasing velocity 40
Assume MR velocity 500
ERO = PISA radias^2 / 2
RV for MR
ERO * MR VTI
MS by PHT
MVA = 220 / PHT
PHT
DT * 0.29
Pitfalls of PHT for MS
Bad with high LV pressures or impaired relaxation
Donāt use after balloon valvuloplasty
MS by continuity
MVA = LVOT area * LVOT VTI / MV VTI
Pitfalls of continuity for MS
AR increases LVOT VTI
MR increases MV VTI
PISA for MS
MVA = 2 * PI * r^2 * aliasing velocity / peak velocity * angle / 180
CO in aortic regurgitation
Must use MV SV, donāt use LVOT SV
AR RV
LVOT SV - Mitral SV
AR RF
RV / LVOT SV
AR EROA
RV / AR VTI
Severe AR RV
> 60
Severe AR RF
> 50
Severe AR ERO
> 0.3
Severe AR PHT
<250
>500 argues strongly against
Severe AR vena contracta
> 0.6
