AI Article Synopsis

  • Pressure recovery can lead to inaccurately high aortic valve gradients when measured using Doppler echo.
  • This effect is more significant after the replacement of a prosthetic aortic graft.
  • When Doppler gradients don't match a patient's symptoms, a catheter-based assessment is recommended for a more accurate evaluation.

Article Abstract

• Pressure recovery can result in falsely elevated AV gradients by Doppler echo. • Pressure recovery is more pronounced following prosthetic aortic graft replacement. • Doppler gradients disproportionate to symptoms warrant catheter-based assessment.
