Overview
According to the 2014 and 2017 AHA/ACC Guideline, screening for mitral stenosis by TTE is recommended among patients with signs or symptoms. " Exercise testing with Doppler or invasive hemodynamic assessment is recommended to evaluate the response of the mean mitral gradient and pulmonary artery pressure in patients with MS when there is a discrepancy between resting Doppler echocardiographic findings and clinical symptoms or signs".
