Severe Mitral stenosis
Severe mitral stenosis – Short A2-OS interval
Severe Mitral stenosis
Severe Mitral stenosis is suggested by
(1) Long or holodiastolic murmur, indicating a persistent LA-LV gradient,
(2) Short A2-OS interval, consistent with higher LA pressure,
(3) Loud P2 (or single S2) and/or an RV lift, suggestive of pulmonary hypertension
(4) Elevated JVP with CV waves, hepatomegaly, and lower extremity edema—all signs of right heart failure.
