Pulmonic valve regurgitation occurs when blood leaks abnormally backward from the pulmonary artery through the pulmonic valve into the right ventricle. This can result in right heart failure.
The patients were included in this study if their preoperative pulmonary arterial systolic pressures were 50 mm. of mercury or more and if there was no evidence of regurgitation around the mitral ...
Diastolic murmurs include aortic and pulmonic regurgitation (early diastolic), and mitral or tricuspid stenosis (mid-late diastolic). Tricuspid stenosis is very rare and is discussed further in ...
Retrograde catheter aortography was performed in 4 patients, and a + (minor) aortic regurgitation was noted in each case. The pulmonary artery was visualized in 1 case by direct needle puncture ...
Regurgitation can also called shortness of breath, as well as heart palpitations, coughing, and increased urination at night. The pulmonary valve sits between the right ventricle of the heart and ...
Mitral regurgitation occurs when the mitral valve ... oxygenated blood travels from the lungs, via the pulmonary veins, into the left atrium. This blood is then pumped through the mitral valve ...
