Provides standardized European Association of Echocardiography recommendations for the echocardiographic assessment of native mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation.
Standardizes Doppler grading of mitral and tricuspid regurgitation; extends prior guidelines to improve consistency in clinical decisions and trials.
Mitral and tricuspid are increasingly prevalent. Doppler echocardiography not only detects the presence of regurgitation but also permits to understand mechanisms of regurgitation, quantification of its severity and repercussions. The present document aims to provide standards for the assessment of mitral and tricuspid regurgitation.
