Pulmonic/Tricuspid Pathology Flashcards
TV flow varies with?
respiration and increasing during inspiration
pressures on the right are
lower than pressures on the left
color doppler eval of TV
- RV inflow view
- PSAX
- apical 4
what is TS
narrowing or obstruction of the LV that impedes flow from the Ra to the RV during diastole
How to measure TS mean pressure gradient
CW VTI trace
moderate TS measurement
2-6
mild TS mean pressure gradient
less than 2 mmHg
TS mean pressure gradient severe
greater than 6 mmHg
obtaining the pressure half time for TS
PHT deceleration slope CW waveform
normal TV
7-9cm squared
severe TS PHT
greater than 190 msec
is TR holosystolic
yes
most common cause of secondary or functional TR
annular dilation from RV or RV enlargement
most common cause of primary TR
myxomatous degeneration of TV
what is peak TR velocity used to calculate what?
the RV systolic pressure and the systolic pulmonary artery pressure
right atrial pressure is estimated by the…
IVC diameter and percentage of collapse as seen in the subcostal view
high SPAP will give patients…
SOB
equation to measure RVSP
what is RAP when the ivc collapse more than 50%
3 mmhg
what is the RAP when the ivc collapse 30-40%
8 mmhg
