OBJECTIVE The minimum value of dP/dT is a parameter of diastolic function that can be estimated noninvasively by analyzing the profile of velocity of the mitral regurgitant jet, recorded by continuous-wave Doppler. This estimation requires a complex analysis of the curves that impedes its practical use. Our objective was to validate a simplified method to estimate noninvasively the value of dP/dTmin when mitral regurgitation exists. We calculated the pendient of the profile of velocity of the curve of mitral regurgitation during its deceleration, between 3 and 1.5 m/s, an interval that defines a difference in pressure using the formula delta p = (4v2(1) - 4v2(2)). We divided this interval by the time needed by the jet to decelerate from 3 to 1.5 m/s, obtaining the rate of pressure decay, in mmHg/s. METHODS We provoked mitral regurgitation in five pigs and registered dP/dT and the curve velocity of mitral regurgitation simultaneously, by micromanometer-tipped catheter and continuous-wave Doppler, respectively. The rate of pressure decay was calculated on the mitral regurgitation curve. RESULTS We obtained 29 simultaneous registers. The coefficient for the correlationship between dP/dT and the rate of pressure decay was with an r value of 0.62 (p < 0.0001). The rate of pressure decay underestimated systematically the value of dP/dT. Intra and interobserver variability of TDP was 9 and 11%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study validates a simplified method to estimate dP/dT noninvasively, with acceptable correlation with invasive measurements and adequate reproducibility.

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.

D015588 Observer Variation The failure by the observer to measure or identify a phenomenon accurately, which results in an error. Sources for this may be due to the observer's missing an abnormality, or to faulty technique resulting in incorrect test measurement, or to misinterpretation of the data. Two varieties are inter-observer variation (the amount observers vary from one another when reporting on the same material) and intra-observer variation (the amount one observer varies between observations when reporting more than once on the same material).

D017725 Ventricular Pressure The pressure within a CARDIAC VENTRICLE. Ventricular pressure waveforms can be measured in the beating heart by catheterization or estimated using imaging techniques (e.g., DOPPLER ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY). The information is useful in evaluating the function of the MYOCARDIUM; CARDIAC VALVES; and PERICARDIUM, particularly with simultaneous measurement of other (e.g., aortic or atrial) pressures.
