Indications for Aortic Valve Replacement
Shown below is an algorithm depicting the indications for aortic valve replacement (AVR) in chronic aortic regurgitation.
What is the severity of the aortic regurgitation? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Severe regurgitation ❑ Vena contracta >0.6 cm ❑ Doppler jet width ≥ 65% of LVOT ❑ Regurgitant volume ≥60 mL/beat ❑ Regurgitant fraction ≥50% ❑ Effective regurgitant orifice ≥ 0.30 cm² ❑ Holodiastolic flow reversal in the proximal abdominal aorta ❑ Left ventricle dilatation | Progressive regurgitation (Stage B) Mild ❑ Vena contracta <0.3 cm ❑ Doppler jet width <25% of LVOT ❑ Regurgitant volume <30 mL/beat ❑ Regurgitant fraction <30% ❑ Effective regurgitant orifice <0.10 cm² | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Is the patient symptomatic? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Yes (Stage D) | No (Stage C) | Is the patient undergoing another surgery? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
LVEF<50% (Stage C2) | The patient is undergoing another surgery | LVEF ≥ 50% LVESD > 50mm (Stage C2) | LVEF ≥ 50% LVEDD > 65mm Low surgical risk | LVEF ≥ 50% LVESD ≤ 50mm LVEDD ≤ 65mm | No | Yes | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
AVR (Class I) | AVR (Class I) | AVR (Class I) | AVR (Class IIa) | AVR (Class IIb) | Monitor the patient periodically | Monitor the patient periodically | AVR (Class IIa) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
