Question 1

Which window has this pedoff CW waveform been taken from?

Answer 1

Apical

(This is severe stenosis, because it is over 4cm/s)

Question 2

What is the grade of stenosis by peak velocity and velocity ratio?

Answer 2

Peak AV velocity is severe; velocity ratio is moderate

Velocity ratio LVOT/AV = 1.1/4.3 = 0.26
Velocity ratio severe = <0.25
Moderate 0.25- 0.5
Mild = >0.5

Question 3

Degenerative/ calcific aortic disease begins at the cusp/ edges T/F?

Answer 3

False

Question 4
