Correlation between echocardiography and cardiac catheterization in assessing the severity of aortic stenosis. 1983

M Motro, and Z Vered, and S Rath, and A Schneeweiss, and H N Neufeld

The severity of aortic stenosis was assessed by echocardiography in 81 consecutive adult patients, 40 of whom underwent cardiac catheterization. The patients' mean age was 54 +/- 16.4 years. A good correlation was found between the severity of aortic stenosis assessed by cross-sectional echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. Aortic valve separation of 7 mm or less occurred only in severe aortic stenosis whereas a separation of 12 mm ruled out any significant aortic stenosis. A separation of 8-11 mm constituted a 'grey' area between mild and severe aortic stenosis. Cross-sectional echocardiography provides a reliable method for crude evaluation of aortic stenosis.
