Introduction: Guidelines suggest the use of several echocardiographic (Echo) parameters to
assess mitral regurgitation (MR) severity using an integrated approach without guidance as …

Background: Generally, the severity of mitral regurgitation (MR) is evaluated with proximal
isovelocity surface area (PISA) or volumetric methods. However, there are some difficulties …

Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) have
complementary roles in the severity grading of mitral regurgitation (MR). Our objective was …

The aim of study was to determine the significance of the best echocardiographic
parameters for assessing the severity of mitral regurgitation (MR). Methods—The study …

Abstract Background The EACVI and ACC/AHA guidelines recommend assessing several
echocardiographic parameters when evaluating mitral regurgitant severity. In a given …

Background Guidelines suggest the use of quantitative and semi-quantitative
echocardiographic (ECHO) methods to assess mitral regurgitation (MR) severity. There has …

The severity of mitral regurgitation (MR) with multiple regurgitant jets is often underestimated
on standard transthoracic ehocardiography (TTE) examination, since all jets are usually not …

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to develop a semiquantitative index of mitral
regurgitation severity suitable for use in daily clinical practice and research. BACKGROUND …
