Heart disease need advic i have mitro heart disease and also an irregular heartbeat?
The question is not clear. You may have mitral valve prolapse, mitral stenosis or mitral regurgitation. Mitral valve prolapse is a heart problem in which the valve that separates the upper and lower chambers of the left side of the heart does not close properly. Mitral stenosis is a heart valve disorder that involves the mitral valve. This valve separates the upper and lower chambers on the left side of the heart. Stenosis refers to a condition in which the valve does not open fully, restricting blood flow. Acute mitral regurgitation is a disorder in which the heart's mitral valve suddenly does not close properly, causing blood to flow backward (leak) into the upper heart chamber when the left lower heart chamber contracts. In open surgery, the surgeon makes a large incision (cut) in your breastbone to reach the heart. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000180.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_prolapse http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000175.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_stenosis http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000177.htm http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000176.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_regurgitation http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/007411.htm http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/007412.htm
For what reasons may an aortic valve replacement surgery be needed?
Aortic valve replacement surgery will be required if the valve in the heart is either too narrow for all of the blood to pass through or if the valve is leaking. This valve is very important as it prevents blood from rushing back into the heart after it has been pumped out.
Can you get a cramp in the heart?
Definition Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common heart disorder. It occurs when the valve between your heart's left upper chamber (left atrium) and the left lower chamber (left ventricle) doesn't close properly. When the left ventricle contracts, the valve's leaflets bulge (prolapse) upward or back into the atrium. Mitral valve prolapse sometimes leads to blood leaking backward into the left atrium, a condition called mitral valve regurgitation. Mitral valve prolapse affects slightly more than 2 percent of adults in the United States. Men and women appear to develop MVP in similar numbers. In most people, mitral valve prolapse is harmless and doesn't require treatment or changes in lifestyle. It also doesn't shorten your life expectancy. In some people with mitral valve prolapse, however, the progression of the disease requires treatment. Symptoms Although mitral valve prolapse is a lifelong disorder, many people with this condition never have symptoms. When diagnosed, people may be surprised to learn that they have a heart abnormality. When signs and symptoms do occur with mitral valve prolapse, it's typically because blood is leaking backward through the valve (regurgitation). Symptoms can vary widely from one person to another. They tend to be mild, develop gradually and may include: A racing or irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia) Dizziness, lightheadedness Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, often when lying flat or during physical exertion Fatigue Chest pain that's not associated with a heart attack or coronary artery disease What that feeling is is called a something-valve prolapse or something. My dad and I get them ocassionally. It is where a valve doesnt close right. Its harmless and the best way to get rid of it is to breath it out or wait it out.
What are the mitral and tricuspid valves?
The heart has four chambers. Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium from around the body via the superior and inferior vena cavae, and travels down through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.The right ventricle pumps the deoxygenated blood to the lungs to be oxygenated, via the pulmonary artery (the only artery that carries deoxygenated blood). It returns via the pulmonary vein (the only vein that carries oxygenated blood) into the left atrium.Oxygenated blood then enters the left ventricle (the heart's principle pumping chamber, and has particularly thick muscular walls) from the left atrium through the mitral valve. The left ventricle pumps the oxygenated blood at sufficient pressure to travel round the entire body, through the aortic valve and into the aorta.- Qu.mstr.
Which set of valves close when the ventricles relax?
When the left ventricle contracts, the mitral valve closes and the aortic valve opens. This is so blood flows into the aorta and out to the rest of the body. While the left ventricle is relaxing, the right ventricle also relaxes. This causes the pulmonary valve to close and the tricuspid valve to open.
What is Mitral valve regurgitation?
The mitral valve is located between the left atrium (LA) and the left ventricle (LV). In normal circulation, oxygenated blood comes from the lungs into the LA, Whe the LA contracts, the blood goes into the LV. When the LV contracts, the blood is pumped into the aorta for circulation throughout the body. The mitral valve prevents blood from going back up to the LA from the LV during ventricular contraction. Mitral regurgitation is when the mitral valve does not close properly during ventricular contraction, and allows blood to go back up to the LA.
What is mitral insufficiency?
Mitral insufficiency is a disorder of the heart in which the mitral valve does not close properly. It is also called mitral regurgitation and more info can be found here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_regurgitationMitral
What circulation system is affected if the mitral valve does not close properly?
The mitral valve is also known as the left atrioventricular valve. It prevents blood flow back into the atria while the ventricles are contracting. There are also two types of circulation through the heart. The systemic circuit carries blood to and from all the body tissues and is operated by the left side of the heart. The pulmonary circuit carries blood to and from the lungs and is operated by the right side of the heart. Because this valve is located on the left side, the systemic circulation is affected when the mitral valv is not functioning correctly.
What is regurgitating?
The mitral valve is located between the left atrium (LA) and the left ventricle (LV). In normal circulation, oxygenated blood comes from the lungs into the LA, Whe the LA contracts, the blood goes into the LV. When the LV contracts, the blood is pumped into the aorta for circulation throughout the body. The mitral valve prevents blood from going back up to the LA from the LV during ventricular contraction. Mitral regurgitation is when the mitral valve does not close properly during ventricular contraction, and allows blood to go back up to the LA.
Mitral valve prolaspe?
Mitral valve prolapse is that mitral valve can not close completely due to some change in its structure. It's thought to be inherited and commonly occur with other connective tissue disorder, mostly Marfan syndrome.
The first sound of a cardiac cycle occurs when?
closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves.
What happens to the biscupid valve if it fails to close properly?
A poor functioning bicuspid valve, also known as the mitral valve, would lead to fatigue, dyspnea, orthopnea and cyanosis. This is caused by a back of blood at the lungs and decrease in oxygen being distributed to the body.

When is the mitral valve is normally?
The mitral valve, also called the AV valve, closes during ventricular systole, which is one of the part of the cardiac cycle. When the atria contracts (atrial systole), the ventricules fill with blood, causing the mitral valve to close in order to avoid the blood from flowing back into the atrium. Hope it helps!!
