[Role of echocardiography in preoperative diagnosis of organic defects of the tricuspid valve in patients with rheumatic mitral heart defects]. 1982

V V Bobkov, and T I Kulagina, and S L Dzemeshkevich, and V A Prelatov, and G A Levina

The results of investigations by echoCG, ECG, FCG, sphygmography, roentgenography, including cardiac catheterization, of 16 patients with rheumatic mitral-tricuspid disease of the heart were compared. The organic injuries of the tricuspid valves (OITV) were confirmed during operation. With respect to preoperative diagnosis of OITV the sensitivity of echoCG was equal to 94 %, polycardiography--81 %, roentgenography--54 %, cardiac catheterization--94 %. Thus, echoCG proved to be the most accurate method of the primary asanguineous diagnosis of an organic injury of the tricuspid valve. The echocardiographic diagnosis of OITV included the symptoms of constriction of the right atrioventricular orifice and fibrous alterations of the valve cusps. Possible technical errors of the methods in respect to the detection of OITV are discussed.

D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D008946 Mitral Valve Stenosis Narrowing of the passage through the MITRAL VALVE due to FIBROSIS, and CALCINOSIS in the leaflets and chordal areas. This elevates the left atrial pressure which, in turn, raises pulmonary venous and capillary pressure leading to bouts of DYSPNEA and TACHYCARDIA during physical exertion. RHEUMATIC FEVER is its primary cause.

D010701 Phonocardiography Graphic registration of the heart sounds picked up as vibrations and transformed by a piezoelectric crystal microphone into a varying electrical output according to the stresses imposed by the sound waves. The electrical output is amplified by a stethograph amplifier and recorded by a device incorporated into the electrocardiograph or by a multichannel recording machine. Phonocardiographies
D004452 Echocardiography Ultrasonic recording of the size, motion, and composition of the heart and surrounding tissues. The standard approach is transthoracic.
