European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 05/27/09
Germing A et al. - Echocardiographic assessment prior to valve surgery is crucial for clinical decision making, timing of surgery, planning the adequate surgical therapy and predicting the patient's outcome. Description of transvalvular velocities is not enough for sending a patient to the operating room. An echohemodynamic approach enables the cardiac surgeon to plan and perform the adequate surgical procedure.
