Overview
Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is usually adequate for the evaluation of tricuspid regurgitation; to confirm the diagnosis, determine the etiology, establish the baseline severity and for the assessment of the function of the right ventricle prior to surgery. In cases of non-diagnostic transthoracic studies, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) improves the visualization of the valvular structure and delineates the mechanism and severity of regurgitation.[1]
Echocardiography
Echocardiography with Doppler is the method of choice for the non-invasive detection and evaluation of the severity and etiology of valvular regurgitation. Echocardiography allows the evaluation of the following:[2][3]
- Right ventricle structure and function
- Right atrium structure and function
- Inferior vena cava
- The structure and function of the left chambers of the heart
- The structures of the tricuspid valve and the underlying etiology of mitral regurgitation
- Pulmonary artery pressure
- Pressures in the heart chambers
- The severity of the tricuspid regurgitation through the measurement of:
- The tricuspid annular diameter in the apical 4-chamber view
- Tricuspid valve leaflet tethering height
- Tricuspid valve leaflet tethering area
- Tricuspid regurgitation jet velocity signal
- Characteristic primary valvular abnormalities can be detected by tricuspid valve motion which includes the conditions like:
- Ebstein's anomaly
- Carcinoid heart disease
- Rheumatic valve disease
- Tricuspid valve prolapse
- Flail leaflet
- Endocarditis
- By using the vena contracta method with colour doppler we can estimate the severity of the tricuspid regurgitation and that includes:
- The vena contracta width has to be more than 0.7 cm along with systolic flow reversal in the hepatic veins
- In the presence of atrial fibrillation, systolic flow reversal in the hepatic veins cannot be accurate
- By using the modified Bernoulli equation, we can estimate the pulmonary hypertension on echocardiography by measuring the right ventricle to right atrial systolic gradient from the velocity of the tricuspid regurgitation jet

2014 AHA/ACC Guideline for the Management of Patients With Valvular Heart Disease: Executive Summary[2]
| Class I |
| "1. TTE is indicated to evaluate severity of TR, determine etiology, measure sizes of right-sided chambers and inferior vena cava, assess RV systolic function, estimate pulmonary artery systolic pressure, and characterize any associated left-sided heart disease. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| Class IIb |
| "1. CMR or real-time 3-dimensional echocardiography may be considered for assessment of RV systolic function and systolic and diastolic volumes in patients with severe TR (stages C and D) and suboptimal 2-dimensional echocardiograms. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
==2008 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Patients with Valvular Heart Disease - Evaluation of Tricuspid Valve Disease in Adolescents and Young Adults(DO NOT EDIT)[4]
| Class I |
| "1. Doppler echocardiography is indicated for the initial evaluation of adolescent and young adult patients with TR, and serially every 1 to 3 years, depending on severity. (Level C)" |
