Elevation of plasma catecholamine levels during exercise in patients with mitral stenosis correlated with the severity of the disease. We investigated the plasma norepinephrine changes in six patients before and after percutaneous transluminal mitral valvuloplasty (PTMV) during continuously graded ergometer exercise. Peak exercise intensity was increased from 65.8 W to 87.5 W after PTMV. Plasma norepinephrine level at 60 W workload intensity was decreased from 2308 +/- 864 pg/ml to 841 +/- 233 pg/ml after PTMV (p < 0.05). We concluded that PTMV decreased the plasma norepinephrine level during exercise in the patients with mitral stenosis. Percutaneous transluminal mitral valvuloplasty is a novel procedure for the improvement of symptoms in patients with mitral stenosis.

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.

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D002404 Catheterization Use or insertion of a tubular device into a duct, blood vessel, hollow organ, or body cavity for injecting or withdrawing fluids for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It differs from INTUBATION in that the tube here is used to restore or maintain patency in obstructions. Cannulation,Cannulations,Catheterizations
D005080 Exercise Test Controlled physical activity which is performed in order to allow assessment of physiological functions, particularly cardiovascular and pulmonary, but also aerobic capacity.
