We thank Dr DeGroff for his thoughtful comments and appreciate his concerns regarding our study design. Although it is true that the results of our study are based on echocardiographic studies…
I commend the work of Groh et al . looking at the differences in estimating right ventricular pressures (i.e., tricuspid valve gradients) using Doppler echocardiography compared with catheter-measured pressures. Doppler-derived tricuspid…
We would like to thank Dr Tozzi for his thoughtful letter regarding our report titled “Elevated Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Velocities on Exercise Stress Echocardiography May Be a Normal Physiologic…
I would like to congratulate Wittlieb-Weber et al . on their publication highlighting the variability of left ventricular outflow (LVOT) velocities during exercise in apparently healthy children. Their study also demonstrated…
We appreciate the comments of Cantinotti et al . Since the introduction of Z scores in cardiology, limitations in the use of current pediatric nomograms for the mitral valve and aortic…
We read with interest the article by den Dekker et al . titled “Comparability of Z -Score Equations of Cardiac Structures in Hypoplastic Left Heart Complex,” which was recently published in…
