Overview

Management

Shown below is an algorithm of the management of low flow, low gradient aortic stenosis.[1]

 
 
Ultrasound evaluation of aortic stenosis
Effective orifice area (EOA)≤ 1 cm2
Pressure gradient (ΔP)<40 mmHg
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Low grade low flow aortic stenosis
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Normal left ventricular ejection fraction
 
Left ventricular ejection fraction≤ 40%
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
No specific recommendations:
- Surgical AVR, or
- Transcather AVR, or
- Medical treatment
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Dobutamine stress test
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Increase in stroke volume by ≥ 20%
 
Increase in stroke volume by <20%
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Presence of left ventricular flow reserve
 
Absence of left ventricular flow reserve
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
ΔP≥40
EOA<1-1.2
 
ΔP<40
EOA≥1-1.2
 
EOA<1-1.2
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
True severe aortic stenosis
 
Pseudo-severe aortic stenosis
 
True severe aortic stenosis
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Surgical AVR
with/without CABG
 
Medical treatment
Close follow up
 
Transcather AVR
