BACKGROUND: Evaluation of whether dyspnea has a cardiac cause is essential. Guidelines from 2016 were reported to result in a ...

Aims: To assess long-term prognosis in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, receiving current standard pharmacological therapy. Conclusion ...

The heart’s four valves – the mitral, aortic, pulmonary, and tricuspid – open and close to move blood around the body. If a valve becomes damaged or stretched, it can also become leaky.

INDIANAPOLIS — A more quiet pattern begins today and continues through Thursday, but you'll notice hazy conditions as dense wildfire smoke returns to the Indiana sky. Today will bring an end to a five ...

Objectives Echocardiographic methods are used to quantify mitral regurgitation (MR) severity; however, their applicability, accuracy and reproducibility have been debated. We aimed to develop and ...

Enjoy the beautiful weather now and stay weather-aware this weekend as summer-like humidity returns along with storm chances! Stay with WTHR-TV and the Live Doppler 13 Weather Team for the latest on ...

Mitral regurgitation was estimated by an index of the rate of the atrial pressure rise during ventricular systole in mm. Hg/0.02 second multiplied by 10, and divided by the cardiac index. In ...

Mitral valve surgery has changed considerably in the past decades and is now indicated mostly for pure or predominant mitral regurgitation. This is the result of the regression of rheumatic disease, ...

Ultrasonic velocity profiler (UVP) have their distance range or maximum velocity limited by the Nyquist sampling theorem. Dual-pulse repetition time (PRT) technique employs a nonuniform pulsed ...

An ECG signal can be reconstructed by relating features of a heartbeat signal obtained by a Doppler sensor to those of the ECG signal. Thus, we construct the deep learning model that extracts the ...
