We aimed to evaluate the valves of the heart and the severity of valvular lesion in rheumatic heart disease patients using echocardiography to help patients treat the disease. A retrospective descriptive and analytic study including 60 consecutive patients (44 males and 16 females, with a mean age of 40 years) was conducted by evaluating a total of 60 echocardiography examinations of the heart. Tests were performed with a direct adhesion technology with convex and sector transducers with frequency ranges between 2 to 4 MH. The results show a high frequency of degenerative valve diseases like mixed valve disease, isolated mitral stenosis, isolated aortic regurgitation, and aortic stenosis. This study concluded that the valvular changes in Rheumatic heart disease are detectable by conventional ultrasound only in very advanced stages of the disease. The study recommended using echocardiography routinely in the diagnosis and treatment units of rheumatic heart disease and follow-up patients with rheumatic heart disease. It also suggested that the research could constitute a base for further research in this field.
