Pressure tracings in mitral regurgitation

Pressure tracings in mitral regurgitation
Simultaneously recorded pressures from the left atrium (LA) and left ventricle in a patient with mitral regurgitation. There is a tall "V" wave in the LA occurring during ventricular systole, reflecting a large regurgitant volume of blood ejected into the LA.
