Provides standardized European Association of Echocardiography recommendations for the echocardiographic assessment of native mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation.
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.
Lancellotti et al. (2010) studied this question.
