- Exam indication: Amnesia following MVA
- The left ventricle is normal in size. Left ventricular systolic function is
normal. EF = 61 ± 5% (2D biplane) Baseline left ventricular diastolic function is
normal.

Dear patient,
Thanks for your health concerns. The results of the echocardiogram are essentially within normal limits; the changes in the valve are trivial, meaning not significant at the present time. No significant evidence for valvular dysfunction or degeneration from report.
Loss of consciousness from a cardiac cause can be caused by valuvular disease (none seen here) hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (none seen here) and arrhythmias; this later group can be assessed by other tests such as Holter monitor or implantable loop recorder. Please discuss these with your cardiologist. For now, until an explanation of the syncope has been found, you should abstain from driving and operating heavy machinery.
Hope that helps, wish you the best,

so in genral so evey person has some reg in your best opinion is the fish oil the best vitamin for hart helth i have thought about switching over to red crill oil
Yes; as a matter of fact we use tricuspid regurgitation to estimate pressures on the right side, which could be normal, and there may also be some degree of physiologic pulmonary regurgitation.
As for vitamins or supplements, even fish oil has not proven by itself to confer cardiovascular benefits in prevention. My best advise to patients is to consume their Omega 3 from diet: lean fish like salmon, mackerel, trout, etc at least 3-5 serving per week, with a diet rish in nutes, fruits and vegetables. That approach has actually showed cardiovascular benefit, as documented in the recent spanish study PREDIMED.
