"Additionally, the mitral valve anatomy can be assessed ⁷. One widely adopted echocardiographic scoring system for this is one that Wilkins et al. developed.In this system, four features of the mitral valve are identified, as follows ⁷:"

Commas

suggestion

"Patients with mitral stenosis characteristically present with progressive dyspnoea that is precipitated by sudden changes in heart rate, volume status or cardiac output (e.g. physical exertion, fever, emotional stress, anaemia, atrial fibrillation, pregnancy, etc.) ^2,3. Clinical examination classically reveals a malar flush ('mitral facies') due to cutaneous vasoconstriction, and a mid-diastolic murmur that is heard on praecordial auscultation ^2,3. Auscultation may also reveal an opening snap and a loud first heart sound ^2,3."
