Overview

Pulmonary valve regurgitation (PR) may be classified according to etiology of the regurgitant flow, severity of the disease and chronicity. Based on the etiology of the regurgitant flow, PR may be classified into primary and secondary/ functional types. The severity of the disease may classify into mild, moderate and severe disease. New York Heart Association's (NYHA) functional classification helps to gauge the severity of the heart failure which is a complication of PR. The severity of PR can be assessed by utilizing the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology (AHA/ACC) staging of valvular heart disease (VHD).

Classification

Pulmonary regurgitation (PR) may be classified into subtypes based on the etiology of the regurgitant flow, severity of the disease and chronicity.[1]

Based on the Etiology

Pulmonary regurgitation (PR) may be classified into two subtypes based on either intrinsic or extrinsic factors involved in the development of the disease:

Based on the Severity

Pulmonary valve regurgitation may be classified into three categories based on the severity of the regurgitant flow:[6][7]

Severity Mild Moderate Severe
Valve morphology Normal Normal to abnormal Abnormal
Symptom status Usually asymptomatic Mild symptoms Significant symptoms
Causes Physiologic PR Secondary causes of PR
(such as pulmonary artery dilation)
Post procedure (such as valvulotomy) or
anatomic abnormalities of the valve


Based on the Chronicity

Pulmonic regurgitation (PR) may be classified into two subtypes based on the chronicity of the disease. Chronic diseases are broadly defined as conditions that last 1 year or more.[8]

Other Classifications

Staging

According to the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology (AHA/ACC), the staging of valvular heart disease (VHD) is based on the progression of the disease. Although the staging has not been specified for PR, it is a useful tool to access the disease course.[11]
