BMJ Case Reports Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2012-008211 DESCRIPTION A case of prominent jugular venous pulse ( JVP) with a clear wave pattern and the echocardiography of the condition responsible is discussed. A 63-year-old woman living in a hilly region presented to us with a 20-day history of orthopnoea and swell...
متن کاملPulmonary venous flow in large, uncomplicated atrial septal defect.
BACKGROUND The pulmonary venous flow velocity pattern (PVFVP) in atrial septal defect (ASD) has not been previously studied in detail. Normally, PVFVP is primarily determined by the left heart performance. We hypothesized that the impact of left-sided heart dynamics on PVFVP is diminished in patients with ASD because of the presence of a left-to-right shunt into the low-resistance right side of...
متن کاملIntegrated Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Occlusion and Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Introduction: Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases during childhood. Today, ASD closure is done by occlutech device via cardiac catheterization. ASD repair with transcatheter technique has shown high closure rate. However, coexistence of severe pulmonary stenosis and large defect in atrial septum is rare. When these two problems coexist, the result is i...
متن کاملAtrial Septal Defect – A Review
Defects in the atrial septum cause left to right shunt because the left atrial pressure is higher than that in the right atrium. This causes volume overloading of the right ventricle. While this is generally well tolerated in infancy and childhood, development of exercise intolerance and arrhythmias in later childhood and adolescence, and the risk for development of pulmonary vascular obstructi...
متن کاملAtrial septal defect.
Atrial septal defect is one of the common types of congenital heart disease. Although recognized for centuries and receiving increasing attention since 1900, it was the detailed description by Bedford, Papp, and Parkinson in 1941, of the physical, electrocardiographic, radiological, and diagnostic features, the complications, and the clinical course, that brought the salient characteristics of ...
