What is the phenomenon of pressure recovery in aortic stenosis? Phenomenon of pressure recovery in aortic stenosis: Systolic pressure in the aorta will be lower immediately distal to
Ventriculo-arterial pressure gradient It is usually the peak to peak gradient which is measured from pressure tracing during cardiac catheterisation, while Doppler echocardiography measures the peak instantaneous gradient.
Aortic pressure tracing vs femoral arterial pressure tracing Aortic pressure tracing vs femoral arterial pressure tracing: Upstroke and downstroke are sharper in a peripheral arterial pressure tracing compared
Post Streptococcal Reactive Arthritis Post streptococcal reactive arthritis has a lower latency of about 1 week after the streptococcal infection, unlike the usual delay of about three weeks
Major manifestations of rheumatic fever Major manifestations of rheumatic fever: Polyarthritis – usually migratory, fleeting and flitting type of arthritis; fleeting means transient; flitting means jumping from one joint
Post pacing T wave inversion has been called Chatterjee phenomenon and it has been attributed to cardiac memory after an abnormal depolarization sequence.
Tricuspid regurgitation jet in complete heart block and junctional rhythm Tricuspid regurgitation jet can show a notch during atrial systole when the P waves occur during systole. This
Irregular cannon waves in complete heart block Irregular cannon waves in complete heart block are irregular in both timing and amplitude. P occurring later in systole has a
Differentiation of regular cannon waves from prominent v waves or cv waves of TR Regular cannon waves (RCW): Cannon waves have the characteristics of a wave and are seen
Surgical correction of congenitally corrected TGA (transposition of great arteries) Surgical correction of congenitally corrected TGA: Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (c-TGA) is also known as l-transposition
