Is aortic stenosis the same as a heart murmur?

Signs and symptoms generally occur when narrowing of the valve is severe. Some people with aortic valve stenosis may not have symptoms for many years. Signs and symptoms of aortic valve stenosis may include: Abnormal heart sound (heart murmur) heard through a stethoscope.

What is considered severe aortic stenosis?

Severe aortic stenosis (AS) is currently defined by an aortic valve area (AVA) <1.0 cm2 and/or a mean transaortic pressure gradient (MPG) >40 mm Hg and/or a peak aortic jet velocity (Vmax) >4 m/s.

What type of murmur is aortic stenosis?

The typical murmur of aortic stenosis is a high-pitched, "diamond shaped" crescendo-decrescendo, midsystolic ejection murmur heard best at the right upper sternal border radiating to the neck and carotid arteries (see figure below). In mild aortic stenosis, the murmur peaks in early systole.

How does aortic stenosis cause sudden death?

Syncope and sudden death in patients with aortic stenosis is an expression of diminished coronary arterial blood flow as a result of acute left ventricular failure and diminished cardiac output in a diseased heart.

Without treatment, a person's life expectancy with aortic stenosis after symptoms develop is 1–3 years. Around 50–68% of symptomatic people die within 2 years. Often, they die suddenly. However, aortic valve replacement surgery significantly increases life expectancy.

How many stages of stenosis are there?

The 2020 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Patients With Valvular Heart Disease categorize aortic stenosis into four stages, including: risk of AS (Stage A), progressive hemodynamic obstruction (Stage B), asymptomatic severe AS (Stage C, with substages C1 and C2), and symptomatic severe AS (Stage D, with ...

What is the life expectancy of someone with aortic stenosis?

Without treatment, a person's life expectancy with aortic stenosis after symptoms develop is 1–3 years. Around 50–68% of symptomatic people die within 2 years. Often, they die suddenly. However, aortic valve replacement surgery significantly increases life expectancy.

Is aortic stenosis a death sentence?

Diagnosis: Aortic valve stenosis Aortic valve stenosis historically has been a virtual death sentence in many older adults because they rarely have the stamina to withstand open-heart surgery.

Is aortic stenosis life threatening?

Aortic stenosis is the abnormal narrowing of the aortic valve, which restricts the flow of blood from the ventricle into the aorta. Aortic stenosis can be a serious and potentially life-threatening condition. Treatment options include procedures or surgery to repair or replace the faulty valve.
