肺动脉瓣狭窄(PVS)是一种常见的先天性心脏病变,占活产儿的1/1000,大多数患者具有轻度跨瓣膜梯度。在本研究中,我们试图确定超声心动图诊断的轻度PVS的结果,并提出一种管理算法,该算法可以识别有PVS进展风险的患者,同时减少医疗保健支出。在这项单中心回顾性研究中,我们纳入了所有符合以下标准的患者:首次诊断为 PVS 的年龄 < 10 岁,初始峰值收缩期多普勒梯度为
Pulmonary valve stenosis (PVS) is a common congenital cardiac lesion, 1/1000 live-births, the majority of patients having mild transvalvar gradients. In the present study, we sought to determine the outcome of mild PVS diagnosed by echocardiography and to propose a management algorithm that would identify patients at risk for progression of PVS, yet reduce health care expenditures. In this single-center retrospective study, we included all patients who met the following criteria: first diagnosed with PVS at < 10 years of age, an initial peak systolic Doppler gradient of
