Question 1

what is preserved right ventricular and left ventricular functions with ejection fraction calculated at 53%. what is trivial-to-small circumferential pericardial effusion and mild tricuspid & pulmonic insufficiency?

Accepted Answer

: An ejection fraction of "53%" is normal, but with even mild tricuspid and pulmonic valve insufficiency, the increased load on the ventricles may eventually cause congestive heart disease.  Consult a cardiac surgeon to evaluate when/if a surgical correction might be necessary.

Question 2

2013 healthy heart. 2014 pv trace of pulmonic insufficiency impaired relaxation grade i, 2015 psuedo normalized relaxation grade ii. your plan for me?

Accepted Answer

The information: provided is not sufficient to allow a full treatment plan and the echocardiographic findings would need to be verified personally however it would not be unreasonable to do nothing if you had no symptoms or restrictions. If you were symptomatic I would consider low dose beta blocker if it were not otherwise contraindicated for you.

Question 3

what is mild pulmonary regurgitation?

Accepted Answer

Anatomy: the heart has four valves.
one of the calve called a pulmonary valve
pulmonary regurgitation is when that valve do not closed completely and part of the blood leak back.

Question 4

is mild pulmonary regurgitation harmful?

Accepted Answer

Maybe : Pulmonary regurgitation may indicate that the pressure in the pulmonary artery may be increased and this requires further evaluation to determine if it's important or not

Question 5

i have mild pulmonary regurgitation.
what are its symptoms and what precautions should i take?

Accepted Answer

Mgt: In mild cases, there often are no or very mild symptoms. These can include shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness and chest pain. 
If you are carefully followed by your cadiologist, they will be able to suggest treatment options. 
If exertion results in any symptoms, please see your physician right away.

Question 6

i had my 2d echo last sept. 4, 2013. results reveaved i had  mild mitral, tricuspid, and pulmonary regurgitation. but i don't any untoward symptom?

Accepted Answer

Not uncommon: Minor/mild degrees of regurgitation are frequently identified on echo and is not necessarily considered as abnormal.   Your lack of symptoms is not unexpected.

Question 7

i am having  a little pain on left chest side and i am having mild pulmonary regurgitation. sometimes i even get sudden black out. is it harmful?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: This could be a serious problem or not - you need to be evaluated by a physician.

Question 8

i have mild pulmonary regurgitation and my bp remains 56/104  or 47/110 or less & heart rate around 80-120 and i feel really tired . what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Mgt: It is important to see your cardiologist. They will perform an ECHO and EKG, as well as determine whether you have pulmonary hypertension.
Repair can be performed at a major medical center, to avoid complications.  From your description, it is important to have a full evaluation soon.

Question 9

i had my 2d echo results revealed mild mitral, tricuspid, pulmonary regurgitation?

Accepted Answer

Ok: May all be within normal range. You can discuss with your cardiologist.

Question 10

concentric left ventricular remodeling, aortic sclerosis with trivial aortic regurgitation, anterior mitral valve prolapse with mild mitral regurgitation, mild tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary regurgitation
how can this be treated? what it means?

Accepted Answer

Cardiologist: While mitral valve prolapse with some regurgitation is not uncommon in your age group, scarring of the aortic valve isn't and warrants an evaluation by a cardiologist. I would prefer to see trivial regurgitation of the tricuspid and pulmonary valves in the report as mild regurgitation sounds more significant although in your case these valves are probably OK.
