Tricuspid Regurgitation

Tricuspid Regurgitation

  1. Obtain apical four chamber view (see LV fxn slide) with straight septum 
  2. Turn on color doppler and size box so that it fills right atrium + goes past tricuspid valve leaflets. 
  3. Freeze image. Trace jet area. 
  4. Assessment: 
    • Likely Mild: TR < 5cm squared area 
    • Likely Mod: TR 5-10cm squared area 
    • Likely Severe: TR > 10cm squared area 
  • Note: The video shown demonstrates no significant TR.
