Hemodynamics of Valvular Heart Disease
CardioNerds (Drs. Apoorva Gangavelli, Cory Sejo, and Joseph Kassab) discuss the hemodynamics of valvular heart disease with Dr. Michael Brener. Using pressure-volume loops and clinical cases, they explain ventricular loading, myocardial energetics, and ventricular-arterial coupling, then apply these concepts to aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, and tricuspid regurgitation. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy intern, Joshua Khorsandi.
This episode was produced as part of the CardioNerds Academy curriculum by House Einthoven under the guidance of House Chief, Dr. Apoorva Gangavelli, and Academy Program Director, Dr. Gurleen Kaur. A matching review article will be published in US Cardiology Review, the official journal of CardioNerds.
