Q

PISA

A

Blood converging on the regurgitant orifice can be seen as an isovelocity hemisphere of color. The area of this hemisphere is directly related to the volume of blood flow entering the regurgitant orifice.

19
Q

how to calculate the PISA

A
  • VTI trace
  • radius of MR jet with color
  • aliasing velocity
20
Q

PISA for MIld MR

A

less than .5m

21
Q

Vena contracta for moderate MR

A

.5 to .7cm

22
Q

pisa for severe MR

A

greater than .8cm

23
Q

pisa volumetric method

A
  • only used when multiple MR jets are present
    1. flow across the mitral valve calculated by the product of the area of the MV annulus and VTI of the MV PW
    2. lvot calculated
    3. regurgitant fraction calculated
24
Q

2 major consequences of MS

A
  1. the LA does not empty completely, LV maintains higher pressure than normal
  2. pressure in the LA falls very slowly during diastole, E-F slope is diminised
25
Q

what is the planimetry

A

manual tracing of the MV area in PSAX

26
Q

mild MS mean gradient

A

less than 5 mmHg

27
Q

mild MS mean gradient

A

<5 mmHG

28
Q

severe MS mean pressure gradient

A

greater than 10 mmHg

29
Q

MS pressure half time equation

A

220/pht

30
Q

normal MVA

A

4-6 cm squared

31
Q

mitral stenosis on M MODE

A

Anterior motion of PMVL due to stenosis

32
Q

causes of MS

A

rheumatic fever
MAC
MV atresia
prosthetic valve
lupus etc

33
Q

Equation for calculating MVA

A

MVA=220/PHT (pressure half time)

34
Q

The greater the pressure half time in a stenosis…

A

The more severe

35
Q

how do you adjust the color flow doppler for PISA

A

shift the baseline down to approx. 20-40 cm/s

36
Q

EROA EQUATION

A

effective regurgitant orifice area= 2pie(PISAr)2 x Va (aliasing velocity) / MRVmax

37
Q

MR volume equation

A

MR volume= EROA x MR vti

38
Q
