Valve disease + aortopathy + pericardial Flashcards
valve option <50Y
mechanical
valve option >65
bioprosthetic
valve 50-60 ?
individualized decision making
MR, TR medical therapy ? what’s not recommended ?
- treat as HF
- vasodilator therapy for asymptomatic primary MR and normal LV function
sx of AS
- Angina
- syncope
- HF
AS : afterload or preload dependent ? caution wth which meds ?
- afterload dependent
- VD/afterload reducers ( i.e. ACEI)
Severe AS criteria
– Mean Gradient ≥40 mmHg
– Max jet velocity ≥4 m/s
– AVA <1.0 cm2
etiologies of low flow low gradient AS with low EF
-sx
LV diastolic dysfunction
LV hypertrophy
LVEF <50%
- angina, hf, syncope
text for low flow low gradient AS with low EF
Dobutamine stress echo or calcium score of the valve
low flow low gradient AS with normal EF ( paradoxical low flow low gradient) . why? sx
LV wall thickness and small LV chamber with low stroke volume
restrictive diastolic filling
so your EF seems normal
SX: HF, angina, syncope
low flow low gradient AS with normal EF ( paradoxical low flow low gradient) . why paradoxe
bcs ef N , but stroke is low but the EF is normal
paradoxical low flow low gradient text ? values
- calcium scoring of the valve
- > 2000 ( men ) and >1300 *( women)
AS indications for replacement ( Class 1 )
Severe, symptomatic AS
Severe, asymptomatic AS with LV dysfunction (LVEF <50%)
Severe, asymptomatic AS undergoing other CV surgery
AHA 2020 Valve
Symptomatic low-flow, low gradient AS with LV dysfunction (LVEF<50%)
Symptomatic low-flow, low gradient AS with LVEF >50% (“paradoxical” low- flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis)
T if AS most likely cause of symptoms
TAVI/TAVR indications
- > 80
-<10 y - 50-65 : could consider
- intermediate/high/ prohib surgical risk
TAVI contraindicated ?
if comorbidiites preclude benefits
what increase in aortic velocity value will prompt you to reasonibly replacement ( class 2a)
velocity 0.3 m/s or more per year
if patient is asymptomatic, but have critical AS , what’s critical value velocity ?
> 5 m/s
EF% for Class indication in AR?
55%
Etiology of MS most often ? associated with what often
rheumatic
afib
MS does not like high HR , why?
loss of diastolic filling time
MS does not like AF
loss of atrial kick
CI to PMBC
- moderate MR - can make it worse
- LA thrombus
in primary MR, what’s the goal of therapy ?
-correct MR before LV systolic dysfunction
Class 1 MR
- Severe, symptomatic primary MR irrespective of EF
- Severe, asymptomatic , LV systoluc dysfunction ( EF <60%, LV ESD >40mm)
reasonable class 2 A
- asymptomatic , severe MR, EF >60%, LVESD >40.. what can they get ?
mitral valve repair with 95% success and <1% mortality at a comprehensive valve centre
class II a for primary MR with high or prohibitive surgical risk can undergo which procedure if favorable anatomy and life expectancy greater than 1 year
transcatheter edge to edge repair
class 1 indication for sx/intervention for secondary MR ?
none
what is the treatment of 2nd MR
- Max GDMT
- CRT
before consideration for PMVR aka mitaclip ijn pts wth HFrEF and severe FMR
what’s the class 1 indication for TR surgery ?
patient undergoing left sdied valve surgery
trilluminate trial about TR
triclip was assocaited wth reduced TR and sx compared with medical therapy alone
- no difference in mortality or HF hospit
