Analysis of Color Doppler Echocardiogram in Patients with Rheumatic Heart Disease
Liu Zhenlin
Abstract：Objective To analyze the color doppler echocardiogram of 186 patients with rheumatic heart valve disease (RHD),and to discuss the important significance in the diagnosis of RHD with the color doppler ultrasound.Methods The size of each atrial and ventricular,the thickness and movement of ventricular wall,the formation of thrombus,the echo of the valve leaf,the aortic area,the flow velocity and area of aortic blood,the morphology,structure of valve,and the opening and closing conditions of valve were measured with conventional echocardiography,and the pulmonary artery pressure was estimated.Results The thickness of involving valve was increased,the echogenicity was enhanced,the boundary with adhesion and the activities was limited.The secondary atrioventricular was enlargement,the ventricular wall was thickening and left atrial had thrombus and pulmonary hypertension,and so on.Mitral valve was suffer most in rheumatic heart valve disease,next was aortic valve and tricuspid valve,pulmonary valve were almost inviolable.Conclusion Color doppler echocardiogram has a important guiding significance in the diagnosis and treatment of rheumatic heart valve disease.
