probably "Mitral valve - grossly normal valve leaflet morphology and motion."

"Left ventricle - normal systolic and diastolic dimensions, grossly normal segmental wall motion and systolic function overall."

"Aortic valve - mildly sclerotic valve leaflets with no frank stenosis or regurgitation."

Where it says "Atrium normal.", listen for "Right atrium - normal."

Also maybe: "No significant effusion. Intracardiac masses or thrombi - none observed."

And a couple of other places where similar dashes would be appropriate.

Subject: It could have been AFV (aortic flow velocity) or APV sm

(average peak velocity). Also listed under "velocity" is aortic jet velocity and A-peak velocity, though there are no abbreviations provided with these.

ESLs should NOT abbreviate!
