Clinical Use of Doppler Echocardiography in Organic Mitral Regurgitation: From Diagnosis to Patients’ Management

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Knowledge of mitral regurgitation (MR) is essential for any care provider, and not only for those directly involved in the managementof cardiovascular diseases. This happens because MR is the most frequent valvular lesion in North America and the secondmost common form of valve disease requiring surgery in Europe. Furthermore, due to the ageing of the general population and thereduced mortality from acute cardiovascular events, the prevalence of MR is expected to increase further. Doppler echocardiographyis essential both for the diagnosis and the clinical management of MR. In the present article, we sought to provide a practicalstep-by-step approach to help either performing a Doppler echocardiography or interpreting its findings in light of contemporaryknowledge on organic (but not only) MR.
