Multi-fenestrated ASD- mfASD
The prevalence of ASD is 0.88 per 1000 adults. The most common type of ASD is a secundum - a true deficiency in the region of the fossa ovalis. @iamritu @echo_stepbystep @alexsfelixecho @NMerke

Standardized #EchoFirst evaluation includes TTE, TEE, Doppler & 3DEcho for assessment of rims for suitability for device closure, drainage of pulmonary veins, exclusion of sinus venosus-type ASDs, etc.

Clinical case: 65yo, female, referring shortness of breath.
TT #EchoFirst findings: right chambers enlargement, preserved sistolic function, QP:QS: 2,5; deficiency in the region of the fossa ovalis sugestive of complex ASD

2D-TTE shows an important prolapse of PML, likely P2 according to PLAX.
Leaflets are thickned, LA dilatated and everything seems easy.

Let's push the color, but any huge jet can be detected despite a clear systolic murmur.

"1/15" I posted my method to investigate LV diastolic function and was questioned about two unusual aspects: 1) relaxation o LV was analyzed on a 2D PLAX view (how come?); 2) LA size was analyzed by eyeballing (eyeball ????????). Even though I explained in an extensive article.
"2/15" I made this thread to be better understood. Some necessary tenets: normally, 70% of the total diastolic volume reaches LV by the initial 1/3 of diastole, during the rapid filling phase, and 30% by the remaining 2/3. This relation is inverted when relaxation is abnormal.
"3/15" During systole, mitral annulus is pulled in an apical direction. During diastole it recoils, just as an elastic rubber band, in response to its filling. Normally, 70% or close to 100% of its systolic pulling recoils during the initial 1/3 and just 30% or less at the end.
