ABSTRACT

Background Patients after atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) repair may present abnormalities in valve morphology and subsequently develop altered left ventricular (LV) inflow patterns [1]. This may lead to energy loss and affect the kinetic energy in the LV. We aimed to quantify diastolic viscous energy loss and kinetic energy in the LV and to evaluate their association in AVSDrepaired patients compared to healthy controls using 4D Flow MRI.
