- 7Can a Fascia Lata also be used as a bioprosthetic valve?Yes
- 8Are fascia Lata commonly used?No
- 9This is a type of graft that is made from thigh muscle coveringFascia Lata
- 10This type of graft is used from human to humanHomograft
- 11Where do we get a homograft valve from?Human Cadaver donors
- 12Are the durability of the homograft vales as comparable to the porcine and bovine tissue valves?Yes
- 13This is a valve that goes from animal to human?heterograft
- 14What type of graft uses pigs trileaflet AOV?Porcine
- 15What are two types of heterografts?porcine, bovine
- 16Can porcine valves be stented or unstented?Yes
- 17What are 3 other names for a procine graft?Hancock, carpenter edwards, intact
- 18This graft utilizes a cows pericardium and prepares a trileaflet valve mounted on stents and sewing ring?Bovine
- 19What are some common names for Bovine?Carpenter-Edwards, lonescu-Shiley
- 20Is a Lonescu-Shiley graft still used in the US?No
- 21List some complications of a Bioprosthetic valve?Calcification/ degeneration, Thrombus, Infective Endocarditis, Regurgitation, Perivalvular leak, Dehiscence, abnormalities of the valve annulus
- 22Are all valves inherently stenotic?Yes
- 23What does the stenotic degree depend on?Type, Size, Shape, site
- 24What should you use to calculate the level of stenosis?Valve area and pressure gradients
- 25These are commonly found trapped on stents or leaflets, and can cause a total obstruction or stenosis?Thrombus
- 26Are thrombus common on Bioprosthetic valves?No
- 27Is it common to find regurgitation, and what is considered normal?Yes, a small jet is considered normal
- 28Leaking around the bioprosthetic valvePerivalvular Leak
- 29Why can there be leaking around a bioprosthetic valve?Usually due to gaps in the sewing or sutures
- 30What is it called when there is a rocking of the valve, and why does it occur?Dehiscence, due to the sewing of the valve loosening up
- 31What does a Dehiscence generally cause?The sewing to break, thus causing a perivalvular leak
- 32What are 3 types of Mechanical Valves?Ball and Cage, Tilting Disc, Bileaflet tilting disc
- 33This mechanical valve is a ball within a cageBall and cage
- 34What is the most common brand of ball and cage valve?Starr-Edwards
- 35True/ Fase: It is possible for a ball and cage valve to function for 20 yrs?True
- 36This mechanical valve is a single tilting disc that creates a major and minor orificeTilting Disc
- 37What is a common brand name for a tilting disc valve, and what are some other brands?Bjork Shiley (common), Metronic Hall, Wada-Cutter, Lillehei Kaster
- 38Are Bjork Shiley valves still used in the US? Why?No, due to a problem with strut fracture
- 39This mechanical valve is two discs creating 3 orifices?Bileaflet tilting disc
- 40What is a benefit of a bileaflet titling disc?Promotes Central Flow
- 41What is the least Stenotic mechanical valve?Bileaflet tilting disc
- 42What is the most common brands for a bileaflet tilting disc?St. Jude
- 43List some complications of a mechanical Valve?All valves are inherently stenotic, Thrombus, Pannus, Infective endocarditis, Regurgitation, Dehiscence, perivalvular leak, ring abscess, mechanical failure, hemolysis
- 44A fibrous ingrowth of tissue that can lead to regurgitation and stenosis?Pannus
- 45What does a Pannus result in?Leaflets are unable to open/ close correctly
- 46What is the etiology of mechanical/ Bioprosthetic valves?Valvular Stenosis, valvular Reguritation, Native valve Endocarditis, Aortic Dissection, Valve Repairs with valvular rings
- 47What are some common names of MV valve repairs?Carpentier Rings, Duran rings
- 48What pts are likely to recieve a Mechanical valve?Children and yound adults, pts with renal failure and small valves, pts requiring aortic root replacement due to aortic dissection
- 49Why are women who are in child bearing years not given mechanical valves?They want to avoid being put on blood thinners
- 50What pts are likely to recieve a Bioprosthetic valve?elderly pts where long term durability is less important, when you don't want anticoagulation, and when there is an increased risk for thromboembolism
- 51What do you do when you are evaluating a Bioprosthetic valve?Evaluate leaflet mobility and thickness, evaluate LV function,
- 52True/ False: A TEE is not useful when evaluating for vegetations and thrombiFalse
- 53List some complications you want to rule out when evaluating a Bioprosthetic valve?Calcification, Degeneration, Stenosis, Thrombus, Infective Endocarditis, regurgitation, Perivalvular leak, Dehiscence, Annulus abnormalities
- 54When you are looking at a mechnical valve in echo, what do you evaluate for?evaluate disc motion, rule out possible complications
- 55Why is 2D evaluation of a mechanical valve limited?Artifact/ Shadowing
- 56What complications can you have with a mechanical valve?Pannus growth, mechanical failure, and (same as bioprosthetic complication)
- 57What is a good way to distinguish between mechanical and prosthetic valves?Artifact
- 58This is a highly refelctive artifact that creates bright lines shining down from the valveReverberations
- 59What is m-mode used for when looking at a replaced valve?Evaluating poppet/ disc motion
- 60What do you use doppler for when evaluating a replaced valve?Regurgitation
- 61What are some treatments for valve replacements?Serial echoes to evaluate valve, replace valve, and pts with mechanical valves must take anticoagulation medicine
- 62What is a type of anticoagulation medicine?Coumadin
