Overview
There are no specific screening recommendations for patients with pulmonary regurgitation (PR). However, patients on an increased risk of developing PR secondary to conditions such as repair of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), pulmonary atresia or truncus arteriosus may be evaluated by routine echocardiography, ECG or MRI to assess right ventricular size and status of pulmonary valve. A study recommends considering ADAMTS19 genetic testing among all patients with multiple semilunar valve abnormalities. The key diagnostic tests that may be used for screening of PAH (a major risk factor for PR) may include doppler transthoracic echocardiography, DLCO, BNP, NT-pro-BNP, serum urate levels, and ECG.
Screening
- There are no specific screening tests for the detection of pulmonary regurgitation (PR). However, patients on an increased risk of developing PR secondary to other conditions may benefit from regular screening.
Post TOF repair
- Conditions such as repair of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), pulmonary atresia or truncus arteriosus may be evaluated by routine echocardiography, ECG or MRI to assess right ventricular size and status of pulmonary valve. The technique helps early detection of pulmonary valve abnormality among cases where it is highly suspected.[1]
- According to ACC/AHA 2008 Guidelines for the Management of Adults With CHD, patients with repaired TOF should have[2]:
- At least an annual follow-up with adult CHD expert.
- Echocardiographic and/or MRIs performed by staff with expertise in adult CHD
- Screened for heritable causes of their condition (eg, 22q11 deletion)
Genetic screening for PR
A study recommends considering ADAMTS19 genetic testing among all patients with multiple semilunar valve abnormalities (specifically in the presence of subaortic membrane) to facilitate the estimation of heart valve diseae related phenotype frequency.[3] The recommendation is based on the identification of ADAMTS19 as a novel causative gene for autosomal recessive heart valve disease including aortic and pulmonic valve insufficiency.[4]
Pulmonary hypertension (PAH) screening
- PR is common among patients with pulmonary hypertension (PAH).[5] Screening methods have been developed for PAH and may help lower the burden of the disease provided early detection and intervention of PR develops.
- According to the 2015 ESC/ERS Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PAH) the key diagnostic tests that may be used for screening of PAH include[6][7]:
- Doppler transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) possesses the highest level of evidence as a recommended screening test for suspected PAH.
- Pulmonary function tests particularly, DLCO of <60% may be used as a screening method for individuals at high risk of PAH. 75% of patients (majorly tobacco smokers or older individuals) with idiopathic PAH have a reduced DLCO. It is important to note that a normal DLCO does not exclude PAH diagnosis.[8][9]
- Blood biomarkers such as BNP, NT-pro-BNP, and serum urate levels are recommended to be included in PAH screening and elevated levels have been reported to be predictive of PAH. PAH accentuates myocardial wall stress resulting in the release of the hormones tested.[10]
- ECG is a component of PAH screening algorithm. The screening technique has been unsuccessful in identifying early-stage PAH but right axis deviation on ECG has been reported to help discriminate patients with and without PAH. The technique has helped improve the disease detection.
Absent Pulmonary Valve Syndrome (APVS) prenatal screening
- APVS is a rare cause of PR but with poor prognosis. The defect may appear in children with no family history of genetic disorders, born to healthy mothers. It has been diagnosed via ultrasonography due to its suggesting features such as[11][12][13]:
- Pulmonary artery aneurysm/ dilatation (with or without involving its branches)
- Massive PR
- PS
- VSD
- Overriding aorta (some of the features described may be due to accompanying TOF)
- Reversed end-diastolic flow (REDF) in the umbilical artery at 10-14 weeks of gestation has been reported to be associated with APVS. Although at 10-14 weeks, REDF is a rare finding. If present, it is associated with major fetal cardiac anomalies specially Fallot type APVS.
- Among the cases reported (APVS together with TOF), early detection helped early intervention (fetuses were aborted after parents' consent among two of a few cases reported).[12]
- Therefore, it is suggested that early fetal echocardiography screening should be performed for every fetus to confidently diagnose this rare anomaly in time. It is also important to consider the possibility of associated chromosomal abnormalities.[13]
