Peak mitral valve regurgitant velocity tells the examiner:

Perform the following calculations. Mitral valve area:       Max velocity         4.50 m/sec       PHT                      215ms

What is considered Mild AI, using the PHT? 

Complications with Mitral valve prolapse syndrome include:Embolic Events

Calculate the RVSP :       TR = 2.5 m/s       RAP = 10 mmHg

Findings consistent with Aortic stenosis seen on the M-mode echocardiogram include: Thickened Aortic leaflets.

Pulmonic stenosis is commonly caused by Rheumatic disease.

Symptoms noted with Mitral valve prolapse syndrome include:Palpitations and dizziness

Perform the following calculations. Mitral valve area:       Max velocity         2.25 m/sec       PHT                     100ms
