Left ventricular inferior Segmental wall motion by Cardiac angiogram

LV inf SWM by Angiogram

Definition

  • The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends assessing left ventricular wall motion by angiography using a seven segment model with right and left anterior oblique views, compared to the 17 segment model the AHA recommends for assessing segmental wall motion by echocardiography. The seven segments of the left ventricle wall are as follows: 1) anterobasal wall; 2) anterolateral wall; 3) apical wall; 4) diaphragmatic or inferior wall; 5) posterobasal wall; 6) septal wall; and 7) posterolateral wall. [PMID: 1116248] When mapping be aware that the wall segments used in angiography are different from those in echocardiography and we have different LOINC codes for each method.
