  • True/ False: TV most commonly has annuloplasty than replacement.
    True
  • What is shown in the following image?
    Dehiscence of the prosthetic Aortic valve
  • What is shown in the following image?
    AMVL perforation
  • What is Dehiscence?
    breakdown of sutures leading to partial or complete detachment of the prosthesis from annulus.
  • Continuity Eq for EOA. What can be substituted for OT dimensions if needed.
    sewing ring diameter
  • which goes where: Posterior Leaflet Prolapse and Anterior bileaflet prolapse a) MV replacement likely success: b) MV repair likey success:
    a) Anterior bileaflet prolapse b) Posterior Leaflet Prolapse
  • Which Prosthetic Valve was the first artificial valve to be invented?
    Caged ball - Starr-Edwards
  • Mechanical valves will present ____ ____ on Doppler.
    Valve clicks. slide 14 ppt
  • What is the most common obstruction of prosthetic valve?
    Thrombus
  • What technique is shown in the image?
    Sliding Plasty
  • True/False: 35% of porcine prosthesis fail in 10-15 years due to degenration.
    True
  • With both AVR and MVR, which chamber is obscured by shadowing?
    LA
  • What is the most common location for Infective endocaritits. (prosthetic valve complications)
    the sewing ring
  • Name atleast 1 antegrade flow obstruction cause.
    thrombus, pannus (abnormal fibrovascular tissue usually around sewing ring), vegetations
  • What are the most powerful predictors of serious complications with antegrade flow obstruction.
    Hx of CVA, and thrombus area of >0.8cm^2
  • Flow Velocity through the normal prosthetic valve will be (higher/lower) than in normal valve.
    higher.
  • Which type of valve replacement provides 3 orifice for forward flow?
    Bi- leaflet valve.
  • What is the complication of perforated AMVL?
    Severe MR
  • DVI stands for ?
    Doppler Velocity Index = ratio of outflow velocity to prosthetic velocity (Normal functioning Ao prothesis = 0.3 - 0.5)
  • What is the normal mean gradient after TAVR?
    10-15 mmhg

    TAVR TMVR
  • What procedure is done in autograft/ pediatrics? How is it done.
    Ross Procedure. PV is replaced with a bioprosthetic valve and AV is replaced with the PV.
  • Which view is helpful in distinguishing valvular from paravalvular.
    PSAX
  • What are some of the critical post- op pieces? Name 2.
    Ventricular Function, PAP, PG, EOA, prosthesis evaluation and regurge evaluation.
  • What is the Alfieri Technique?
    Surgical technique used to treat severe MR during which a suture was placed between the A2 and P2 segments of the mitral valve. Like Mitraclip but with sutures
  • What type of Ai is seen in the image? what is it most common with?
    Paravalvular Ai, most common with transcatheter replacements and also seen with dehiscence.
  • which one of the following has the highest and lowest gradient; a) bioprosthetic b) stentless c) stented
    stented highest stentless lowest
  • Which scallops are involved in MitraClip?
    A2/P2
