A member asked:

I recently had my review for a bicuspid aortic valve but in a letter i received it mentioned peak velocity of 1.9 ms it also mentioned a mildly aortic stenosis was just wondering how bad or different is 1.9 ms compared to a normal peak velocity. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Increased: A velocity over 2 mm/sec is considered elevated, so I would get an appointment with your cardiologist and discuss options on management
