mitral valve prolapse
|
one or both flaps bulge backward into left atrium during systole = regurgitation (backflow)
causes ischemia = further dysfunction |
|
mitral valve prolapse S&S
|
none
murmur, chest pain, palpitations, dizzy, syncope, fatigue, dyspnea |
|
mitral valve prolapse diagnostic tests
|
echo
card cath |
|
mitral valve prolapse complications
|
emboli
infective endocarditis |
|
mitral valve prolapse interventions
|
none
beta blokers, antidysrhythmics, valvuloplasty, valve replacement |
|
mitral regurgitation
|
incomplete closure of mitral valve leaflets, allows for backflow
causes increased blood volume causes increased pressure in lft. atrium lft ventricle compensates = failure |
|
mitral regurgitation S&S
|
none
murmur, chest pain, palpitations, fatigue, exertional dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis acute: pulmonary edema, shock |
|
mitral regurgitation diagnostic tests
|
ECG
chest xray echo doppler ultrasound TEE cardiac MRI cardiac cath |
|
mitral regurgitation complications
|
emboli
heart failure |
|
mitral regurgitation therapeutic interventions
|
none, antibiotic prophylaxis, ACEI, anticoagulants, vavluplasty, valve replacement
|
|
mitral stenosis
|
thickened mitral valve + shortened chorae tendinae = narrowed valve opening, less blood can leave
lft atrium enlarges, pressure increases causes rt ventricle to dilate rt venticle fails = decreased cardiac output |
|
decreased cardiac output
|
fatigue
|
|
mitral stenosis S&S
|
none
murmur, chest pain, palpitations, fatigue, exertional dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis |
|
mitral stenosis diagnostic test
|
ECG
chest x-ray doppler TEE cariac cath |
|
mitral stenosis complications
|
emboli
heart failure |
|
mitral stenosis interventions
|
none
antibiotic prophylaxis anticoagulants PBV valvuplasty valve replacement |
|
aortic stenosis
|
aortic valve does not open fully - difficult to move blood
causes lft ventricle to contract more forcefully left ventricle hypertrophies eventually decreased cardiac output and failure |
|
aortic stenosis S &S
|
none
angina murmur syncope HF |
|
aortic stenosis diagnostic tests
|
ECG
chest x-ray echo cardiac cath |
|
aortic stenosis complications
|
heart failure
|
|
aortic stenosis interventions
|
valve replacement
|
|
aortic regurgitation
|
aortic valve cusps allow backflow into lft ventricle
left ventricle blood volume increases left ventricle hypertrophys eventual left ventricle failure |
|
aortic regurgitation S&S
|
none
forceful pulse, murmur, chest pain, palpitations, fatigue, exertional dyspnea, corrigan's pulse, diaphoresis |
|
aortic regurgitation diagnostic tests
|
ECG
chest x-ray echo cardiac cath |
|
aortic regurgitation complications
|
heart failure
|
|
aortic regurgitation interventions
|
antiobiotic prophylaxis, valve replacement, digitalis, diuretics, ACEI, nifedipine
