Trying to work out what OD might stand for in "TRICUSPIDE: Gradient VD-OD"...right something? Nearest I could find on Google, searching for "doppler + tricuspid + gradient + RV" was "RV-RA gradient", right ventricle-right atrial gradient, which doesn't seem right, so to speak, anyway. Can anyone clarify this for me? TIA.

oreillette droite (right atrium)
"The pressure gradient between the right atrium and right ventricle obtained at the time of pulmonary valve opening ranged from 9 to 31 mm Hg (mean, 19 ± 5) and correlated closely with invasively measured pulmonary artery diastolic pressure (range, 9 to 36 mm Hg; mean, 21 ± 7 mm Hg; r = 0.92; SEE, 1.9 mm Hg)."

Sarah: you have "RV-OD" in the heading of your question, but "VD-OD" in the body... my answer assumes that you "accidentally" translated VD to RV when you posted your question.
Note from asker:
| Apologies, Rachel, you are quite right--I accidentally typed RV-OD instead of VD-OD. And you have answered my question. I'll wait 24 hours to grade, but many thanks. |

Comment: "Apologies for the typo and many thanks for your answer, which was v. helpful! You confirmed that "RV-RA gradient" was what I needed."
