Mechanisms of Reduction of Mitral Regurgitation by Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
2007, Journal of the American Society of EchocardiographyCitation Excerpt :Apical displacement of the coaptation point was measured from the mitral annular line, drawn from the medial to the lateral annulus in the 4-chamber view (Figure 1). Mitral annular diameter was measured at the end of systole, in the PLAX view, from the base of the aortic cusp at the posterior aortic root to the hinge point of the posterior mitral leaflet.18 The rate of increase of LV pressure in systole (dP/dt) was estimated from the continuous wave Doppler trace of the mitral regurgitant jet, between velocities of 1 and 3 m/s on the descending slope of the velocity spectrum.19
