Tricuspid Regurgitation

Also written as TR.

Tricuspid regurgitation: TR is pansystolic, louder on inspiration, associated with raised JVP. |

What our notes say

Tricuspid regurgitation: TR is pansystolic, louder on inspiration, associated with raised JVP. | (Heart murmurs)
Look for a prominent *v* wave if functional tricuspid regurgitation is present, or a positive Kussmaul sign (paradoxical rise in JVP on inspiration) typical of restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). (Cardiomyopathies)
The cer- tion sound; PR, pulmonic regurgitation; PS, pulmonic stenosis; TR,\nvical venous hum is heard in children or adolescents tricuspid regurgitation; TS, tricuspid stenosis; VPB, ventricular pre in the supraclavicular fossa. (Harrisons Cardiovascular Medicine 2nd Edition 2)
\nMitral \ tricuspid regurgitation Mitral \ Tricuspid stenosis\n\n The most imp things are: Mitral & Aortic valve diseases. (Valvular Heart Disease)
| Tricuspid regurgitation | Pansystolic, louder on inspiration, raised JVP, best with bell at left lower sternal border | vs. (Heart murmurs)
Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP): Elevated, often with a prominent 'a' wave (right atrial contraction against a stiff RV) and sometimes a prominent 'v' wave (tricuspid regurgitation). (Pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale)
