. Immediately following mitral valve opening, there is rapid acceleration of blood flow from the LA to the ventricle resulting in early maximum filling velocity called ___________peak. - E Areas of thinning and increased echogenicity are consistent with: - Scarring from previous ischemia __________________can also affect right heart function and be the cause of Pulmonary hypertension. - Acute pulmonary embolism ________________Doppler displays the velocity of the movement of the myocardium, rather than the intracavity blood flow velocities. - Tissue . In Tissue Doppler (TDI) , early-diastolic velocity is abbreviated as: - E' . LV inflow can be recorded in nearly all patients from an ________________approach in either a fourchamber or long axis. - apical . Name the Quantitative measurements that can be made from the Doppler velocity curve. (4) - E, A, Decel time, and IVRT . The normal range for E/A ratio is _____________ to ______________. - 0.8-2.0 . The time interval from the E peak to where a line following the deceleration slope intersects with the zero baseline and ranges from 140 to 200 ms. is called _____________________ __________________. - Deceleration time 1. All the findings below are consistent with Right side heart failure EXCEPT: - Left ventricular hypertrophy1. At first, chronic pressure overload of RV occurs in pulmonary heart disease that leads to ___________ of the Right Ventricle. - Hypertrophy 1. Early hypertensive heart disease results in _________________ diastolic function with preserved (normal) systolic function. - Impaired 1. In hypertensive heart disease the hypertrophy is usually symmetric with a wall thickness of greater than 1.1cm. T or F? - True 1. Left ventricular hypertrophy is the result of: - Chronic systemic pressure overload 1. Long standing hypertension can lead to systolic dysfunction and left ventricular ___________ can occur. - Dilatation 1. Over time with Pulmonary Heart Disease, contractility deteriorates resulting in all except: - Preserved RV systolic function 1. The condition that most commonly arises out of complications from high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries (pulmonary hypertension) is known as: - Cor Pulmonale 1. With progressing hypertensive disease, the __________ dilates due to due to a combination of chronically elevated LV end-diastolic pressure and mitral regurgitation. - Left atrium A "parachute" deformity of the valve is demonstrated in the second variety of _______________________. - Congenital mitral stenosis A condition in which the heart is located in the right side of the chest and the cardiac apex points medially is which one of the following? - Dextroposition A congenital anomaly with two atria but only one ventricular chamber is known as ____________________. - Single VentricleA discrete or long-segment narrowing in the aortic arch, usually at the level of the left subclavian artery near the insertion of the ductus arteriosus, is called which one of the following? - coarctation of the aorta _____________ can change the normal geometry of the left ventricle. - Pathology (disease) A large ventricular and atrial septal defect with a single, undivided, free-floating leaflet that stretches across both ventricles is called a _________________________. - complete atrioventricular septal defect A patient with heart failure chief complaint is which symptom? - Shortness of breath A procedure that involves a transcatheter balloon dilatation to relieve stenosis of a valve is called: - Valvuloplasty A(n) __________________ defect occurs when the endocardial cushion fails to fuse in the center of the heart. - atrioventricular septal Abrupt mid-systolic deceleration of pulmonic valve spectral tracing shaped like a flying "w" is - Indirect echo finding of pulmonary HTN After the early maximum filling velocity reaches its peak it quickly decelerates. This is called _________________ ______________. - decel slope An increased EPSS of greater than 5mm is indicative of all but: - RV systolic function
