Quantifying aortic stenosis gradients doesn’t have to take ages. Check out this video for a fast and simple way to get the maximal gradients #echocardiographer #cardio #sonographer #cardiology #123sonography
Thanks for your comments.
What a GREAT TIP! i am going to try that next time i have trouble getting a good AS jet! Thank you for sharing!
Insightful
Great advice
Thanks for the piece of advice, Thomas :)
Useful tips
That’s exactly what I do with the color Doppler & I get a higher more accurate velocity almost every time. I’ve scanned after a mod AS pt only a couple of months & take the time to manipulate & watch the color Doppler to get peak velocities well over 4 severe AS. Some of these pts are symptomatic and wasn’t eligible for sx/TAVR due to the mod AS. That’s why more precise/accurate Doppler assessment is important…
Interessante. Because the most variables are derived from aortic peak velocity, a careful evaluation of maximal aortic velocity from different views and windows (apical five- and three-chamber views and suprasternal and right parasternal windows) is mandatory.
