      The pulmonary valve area of a healthy adult is 2.0 cm2/m2 of body surface area. Mild. valvular PS is defined by a valve area larger than 1 cm2 and a peak transvalvular gradient of less than 50 mm Hg. Moderately. severe PS occurs if the valve area is 0.5-1.0 cm2, with a peak transvalvular gradient between 50 and 75 mm Hg. Severe
