Specific types of valvular Heart disease are diagnosed using electrocardiography (EKG), echocardiography, certain x-ray studies, and/or cardiac catheterization.
what is valvular heart disease? how is take care it?
good morning! may i ask you about the valvular heart disease ? could you tell me about the the take care patient of valvular heart disease?
Patients with valvular heart disease have a malfunction of one or more of these valves. There are several types of valvular heart diseases with distinct symptoms and treatments. These are:
The prognosis for patients with valvular heart disease varies depending on the underlying cause, age and health of the patient, and the degree of valvular damage or involvement.
Yes. Color Doppler Ultrasonography gives accurate description of presence of heart disease or valvular heart disease.
High blood pressure, coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, stroke, or rheumatic fever/rheumatic Heart disease can cause heart disease.
If you're asking "Are abnormal heart sounds caused by valvular disease?," the answer is "sometimes." If you're asking "What are the abnormal heart sounds caused by valvular disease?," the answer is "it varies with the type and degree of disease." One of the most common abnormal heart sounds caused by valvular disease is a whooshing or swishing sound instead of the sharp thumping beat of a valve that's functioning properly.
Heart Disease implies any disease of the heart, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, congenital heart disease, valvular heart disease, etc. Heart failure is a condition where the heart muscle has weakened and the heart is not pumping properly.
Coronary Artery Disease, Congestive Heart Failure. Valvular Heart Disease, Cardiomyopathy, Endocarditis, Pericarditis, Arrythmias and many more.
Most ventricular tachycardias are associated with serious heart disease such as coronary artery blockage, cardiomyopathy, or valvular heart disease.
Valvular heart disease refers to conditions that affect the valves of the heart. The heart has four valves - the mitral valve, tricuspid valve, aortic valve, and pulmonary valve - that help regulate blood flow in and out of the heart. Valvular heart disease occurs when one or more valves become damaged or diseased, disrupting the normal flow of blood and potentially leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, and fatigue. Treatment may involve medication or, in severe cases, valve repair or replacement surgery.
The treatment of specific valvular heart diseases will vary, depending on the valve involved and the extent of damage or malfunction. Some patients will not require treatment and many will be treated with medication.
