The reliability of biplane transesophageal color Doppler echocardiography for the evaluation of mitral valve prolapse was assessed by comparison with surgical findings in 27 patients. The mitral valve prolapse site was classified as the medial, central, and lateral portions of the anterior leaflet, and medial, middle, and lateral scallops of the posterior leaflet. The prolapsed sites were determined by the site of systolic displacement using two-dimensional echocardiography, the site of flow acceleration and the direction of the mitral regurgitant jet using color Doppler echocardiography. The sensitivity of transesophageal echocardiography for detecting prolapse at the medial, central, and lateral portions of the anterior leaflet, and the medial, middle and lateral scallops of the posterior leaflet was 91, 100, 86, 83, 100, and 80%, respectively. The specificity was 100, 100, 96, 100, 89, and 100%, respectively. Biplane transesophageal echocardiography is a reliable method for detecting the site of mitral valve prolapse.

D008945 Mitral Valve Prolapse Abnormal protrusion or billowing of one or both of the leaflets of MITRAL VALVE into the LEFT ATRIUM during SYSTOLE. This allows the backflow of blood into left atrium leading to MITRAL VALVE INSUFFICIENCY; SYSTOLIC MURMURS; or CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA.

D015203 Reproducibility of Results The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
