Overview

According to the 2014 AHA/ACC Guideline for the Management of Patients With Valvular Heart Disease, aortic insufficiency has 4 stages based on the valve's anatomy, hemodynamics and the patients symptoms.

Stages

Shown below is a table summarizing the stages of aortic regurgitation (AR) according to the 2014 AHA/ACC guidelines for the management of patients with valvular heart disease. [1]

Abbreviations: AR: aortic regurgitation; HF: heart failure; IE: infective endocarditis; LV: left ventricular; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; LVESD: left ventricular end-systolic dimension; LVOT: left ventricular outflow tract; Jet/LVOT : jet width and LVOT ratio

STAGE DEFINITION VALVE ANATOMY VALVE HEMODYNAMICS HEMODYNAMIC CONSEQUENCES SYMPTOMS
A At risk of AR • Bicuspid valve
• Valve sclerosis
• History of rheumatic fever
Infective endocarditis
• None • None • None
B Progressive AR • Mild-to-moderate calcification
• Rheumatic valve changes
• Dilatation of aortic sinuses
Infective endocarditis
• Mild AR:
• Jet/LVOT <25%
Vena contracta <0.3 cm
• Regurgitant volume <30 mL/beat
• Regurgitant fraction <30%
• Effective regurgitant orifice <0.10 cm²
Angiography grade 1+


• Moderate AR:

• Jet/LVOT: 25%–64%
Vena contracta 0.3–0.6 cm
• Regurgitant volume 30–59 mL/beat
• Regurgitant fraction 30%–49%
• Effective regurgitant orifice 0.10–0.29 cm²
Angiography grade 2+
• Normal LV systolic function
• Normal LV volume or mild LV dilation
• None
C Asymptomatic severe AR • Calcific aortic valve disease
• Rheumatic valve changes
• Bicuspid valve

• Holodiastolic flow reversal in the proximal abdominal aorta
• Regurgitant volume ≥60 mL/beat;
• Regurgitant fraction ≥50%;
• Effective regurgitant orifice ≥0.3 cm2;
Angiography grade 3+ to 4+;
• C1: Normal LVEF and mild to moderate LV dilatation


• C2: abnormal LV systolic function with decreased LVEF or severe LV dilatation

• None
• Exercise testing to confirm symptom status
D Symptomatic severe AR • Calcific aortic valve disease
• Rheumatic valve changes
• Dilated aortic sinuses
Infective endocarditis with abnormal leaflet closure
• Severe AR
• Jet/LVOT ≥65%
Vena contracta >0.6 cm;
• Holodiastolic flow reversal in the proximal abdominal aorta
• Regurgitant volume ≥60 mL/beat;
• Regurgitant fraction ≥50%;
• Effective regurgitant orifice ≥0.3 cm2;
Angiography grade 3+ to 4+;
• May occur with normal systolic function or decreased function

• Exertional dyspnea
• Exertional angina
HF symptoms
