Mitral Valve ProlapseEtiology/Pathophysiology/Manifestations

Mitral valve cusps “billow’ into atrium during ventricular systoleMost common form valvular disease, associated with Marfan’s syndrome (Michael Phelps…does he have it?)

Usually benign-complications- MR, infective endocarditis (IE) , SCDUsually asymptomatic- mid systolic click, and last holosystolic murmurChest pain (atypical)-does not respond to antianginalsDysrhythmia risk?Need for prophylactic antibiotics (IE risk)

Percutaneous Aortic Valve Replacement

Percutaneous aortic valve replacement (AVR)- new treatment being investigated for select patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis… Research at Cleveland Clinic is evaluating a percutaneous technique for implanting a prosthetic valve inside diseased calcific aortic valve. The procedure is performed in catheterization lab…a catheter is placed through femoral artery (in the groin) and guided into chambers of the heart. A compressed tissue heart valve is placed on the balloon-mounted catheter and is positioned directly over the diseased aortic valve. Once in position, the balloon is inflated to secure the valve in place. *For patients with severe peripheral vascular disease, surgeons and cardiologists are testing an alternative approach through the left ventricular apex of the heart.

Percutaneous AVR a) Balloon valvuloplasty; b) Balloon catheter with valve in the diseased valve;c) Balloon inflation to secure the valve; d) Valve in place

Aortic RegurgitationEtiology/Pathophysiology/Manifestations

Congenital valvular defect

Acute causes- trauma, aortic dissection (life threatening)

Chronic- rheumatic heart disease, bicuspid valvular disease

Retrograde blood flow (inc. preload) from ascending aorta > L ventricle dilation, hypertrophy

Eventual dec. myocardial contractility > dec. CO

Develop pulmonary hypertension, Rt. Ventricular failure (*inc. L. ventricular end diastolic pressure=LVED)

If severe- characteristic “*water hammer pulse” (Corrigan’s pulse), wide pulse pressure, and Musset’s sign

Soft or absent S1, presence of S3, S4; soft, high pitched diastolic murmur, systolic ejection click; Austin Flint murmur

Page 25: Cardiovascular: Valvular, Cardiomyopathy, Aneurysm and Cardiac Surgery Click here- Click here- Heart valves at work! Review of Heart Valve sounds (etc)Heart

Water Hammer pulsePulse- “water hammer” -jerky pulse that is full, then collapses due to aortic insufficiency/regurgitation (blood ejected into aorta regurgitates back through aortic valve into L. ventricle ). AKA-called a Corrigan pulse or a cannonball, collapsing, pistol-shot, or trip-hammer pulse. (Click to view video)

Tricuspid and Pulmonic Valve Disorders

•Etiology/Pathophysiology/Manifestations– Tricuspid stenosis (more common than

regurgitation)• Result in R. atrial enlargement > inc. systemic venous

pressure > atrial fibrillation, peripheral edema, ascites, etc.

• Found mostly in rheumatic heart disease, IV drug users– Pulmonic stenosis

• Result in R. ventricular hypertension and hypertrophy• Fatigue , loud midsystolic murmur

– Uncommon valve disorders

Mechanical valve prosthesis- modern tilting disk variety (for mitral valve); last indefinitely from structural standpoint; patient requires continuing anticoagulation due exposed non-biologic surfaces.

Excised porcine bioprosthesis; main advantage of bioprosthesis is lack of need for continued anticoagulation-drawback include limited lifespan, on average from 5 to 10 years (sometimes shorter) due to wear and calcification. (No immune suppressive agents required.)

What Is New?

•Heart valve replacement without need for open heart surgery.

•Typically, diseased or defective valves replaced with an artificial valve or a tissue valve (from pig or cow).

•A new, less invasive procedure, known as percutaneous transcatheter heart valve implantation, involves use of balloon catheters and large stents…

•New heart valve transported via stent; stent then expanded to implant the valve.

• For patients not able to undergo open-heart surgery… percutaneous heart valve implantation may impact significantly on survival and quality of life. Click for more!

•Valves may last a lifetime for older patients, younger patients may need several replacement procedures over time.

•One focus of research-create longer-lasting replacement valves, particularly for patients with congenital heart disease. Research potential toward this goal: stem cell research and the use of endothelial cells.

Aneurysms = Time Bombs

•Outpouchings or dilations of arterial wall

•May involve aortid arch, thoracic aorta and/or abdominal aorta

•*1/2 all aneurysms larger than 6 cm rupture within one year.

•*Thrombi form on dilated arterial wall lead to emboli

•Male and smoking great risk factor,

Page 79: Cardiovascular: Valvular, Cardiomyopathy, Aneurysm and Cardiac Surgery Click here- Click here- Heart valves at work! Review of Heart Valve sounds (etc)Heart

Classifications Aneurysms

True- Fusiform, Saccular

False- (a pseudoaneurysm)- have disruption all layers arterial wall, from trauma, etc.

C.Aortic dissection; D. “False” aneurysm

Page 80: Cardiovascular: Valvular, Cardiomyopathy, Aneurysm and Cardiac Surgery Click here- Click here- Heart valves at work! Review of Heart Valve sounds (etc)Heart

Saccular- true aneursym, pouchlike, narrow neck connecting buldge to one side of arterial wall

Fusiform- most are fusiform; 98% are below renal artery, circumferential, relatively unifrom in shape

Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm

Frequently asymptomaticMay have substernal, neck or back painCoughing, due to pressure placed on the windpipe (trachea) Hoarseness Dysphagia Swelling (edema) in neck or arms Myocardial infarction, or stroke due to dissection or rupture involving branches of the aorta

Dissecting aneurysms-unique and life threatening. A break or tear in tunica intima and media allows blood to invade or dissect layers of vessel wall. Blood is usually contained by adventitia, forming a saccular or longitudinal aneurysm.

Aortic Dissection - blood invades or dissects the layers of the vessel wall (not really an aneurysm)

Aortic dissection occurs when blood enters the wall of aorta, separating its layers, and creating a blood filled cavity

Bifurcated (two branched) endovascular stent grafting of an aneurysm. A, Insertion of a woven polyester tube (graft) covered by a tubular metal web (stent). B, Stent graft is inserted through large blood vessel (e.g., femoral artery) using a delivery catheter. Catheter is positioned below renal arteries in area of aneurysm. C, Stent graft is slowly released (deployed) into blood vessel. When stent comes in contact with blood vessel, it expands to preset size. D, A second stent graft can be inserted in contralateral (opposite) vessel if necessary. E, Fully deployed bifurcated stent graft

Initially treated with I.V beta blockers such as propranolol (Inderal),metoprolol (L opressor), Normodyne or B revibloc to reduce heart rate to 60 bpm. Niprideinfus ion to reduce systolic to 120mmHg. C alcium channel blockers may also be used. Direct vasodilators are avoided because they may worsen the dissection.

Cardiac tamponade

Paradoxical pulse is a pulse that markedly decreases in amplitude during inspiration. On inspiration, more blood is pooled in the lungs and so decreases the

return to the left side of the heart; this affects the consequent stroke volume.

Page 117: Cardiovascular: Valvular, Cardiomyopathy, Aneurysm and Cardiac Surgery Click here- Click here- Heart valves at work! Review of Heart Valve sounds (etc)Heart

•Cardiac tamponade (influenced by volume and rate of accumulation)

•Beck triad (jugular venous distention, hypotension, and muffled heart sounds)

•Pulsus paradoxus is measured by careful auscultation with a blood pressure cuff. The first sphygmomanometer reading is recorded at the point when beats are audible during expiration and disappear with inspiration. The second reading is taken when each beat is audible during the respiratory cycle. A difference of more than 10 mm Hg defines pulsus paradoxus.

•Cyanosis

• No drainage from mediastinal tube
