100
Transfers from one human to another
What is Allograft
100
Name 3 side effects of regurgitation:
What is fatigue, reduced exercise capacity, syncope, PHTN, Pulmonary or systemic edema, CP, dysrhythmias, blood clots, heart failure
100
Retrograde flow in the Descending Aorta
What is significant AI
100
93% of patients have this
What is TR
100

MPG: 5-10 mmHg

What is moderate MS

200
Normally calcified in elderly patients
What is Aortic Valve
200

First complication LVH then LVE

What is AS

200

15 mmHG for RAP

What is <50% collapse of IVC and Dil IVC

200
Invasion of an abnormal valve
What is Streptococcus viridans
200
<200 msec
What is severe AI
300
Single stitch across the MV leaflets when they do not close properly
What is Alfieri or Bowtie procedure
300
First complication RVH, right heart failure, RVE, RE, dilation of SVC and IVC
What is PS
300
Pulmonary HTN, high-pitched, and diastolic
What is Graham-Steele Murmur
300
AOV opens early
What is severe acute AI because increased preload cause LVEDP to exceed the LAP so the MV closes early and AOV opens early, infective endocarditis may also cause this

What is thrombus, pannus ingrowth, stenosis, infective endocarditis, regurgitation, dehiscence, mechanical failure, annulus abnormalities
500
What is the equation to calculate Left atrial pressure from the MR gradient:
What is LAP = Systolic BP- MR Gradient
500
