Abstract

When you have heart valve disease, one or more of your heart's valves don't work right. The four valves in your heart ensure that blood flows in the right direction. One or more of the valves may not properly open or close in some instances. The blood flow from your heart to your body may become irregular as a result of this. The type and severity of your heart valve disease are determined by the affected center valve and its treatment. Typically, heart valve disease necessitates center valve replacement or repair. The mitral, tricuspid, respiratory organ and aortal valves are the four valves in the heart that direct blood flow. The flaps (leaflets) that make up each valve open and close once per heartbeat. The blood flow from your heart to your body is non-contiguous if one or more of the valves fail to open or close properly. Congenital heart valve disease can also occur at birth. It can also happen to adults for a variety of reasons, including infections and various heart conditions.

Introduction

Heart Valve Infection a murmur or sound that can be heard by listening to the heartbeat with a medical instrument is often the first sign of a problem with a heart valve. When blood flows from one chamber to the next, a murmur may resemble a "whooshing" sound or a second click when a valve allows back flow. There are some harmless murmurs. Others will point to the valve's underlying problem. If a murmur is heard, there are a few possible reasons. Sickness of the heart valves, which keep your blood flowing through your heart in one direction, may be fairly common. Although medications can alleviate blood flow issues caused by a malfunctioning heart valve, this typically is insufficient. You will be informed by your aid provider whether you want your valve fixed or replaced. Heart valve disease is any of a number of conditions that prevent one or more of your heart's valves from working properly. If you don't get treatment for heart valve disease, your heart will get stronger.

For several years, some people with heart valve disease may not experience any symptoms. Upon onset, signs and symptoms may include:

• Chest pain

• Fatigue

• Shortness of breath

• Swelling of your ankles and feet

• Dizziness

• Fainting

• Irregular heartbeat

This may reduce your quality of life and even progress to graveness. Your aid provider may, in some instances, perform surgery or a minimally invasive procedure to repair or replace your heart valves, restoring normal function and allowing you to resume normal activities. Oxygen-poor blood returns to your heart's atrium after leaving your body and passing through your atrioventricular valve and ventricle [1,2].

From there, it travels through your semilunar valve and artery to force air out of your lungs. The veins of your respiratory organs carry elemental blood back to your heart's atrium. The blood can move from your heart's atrium to your heart ventricle thanks to your left atrioventricular valve. After passing through your semilunar valve, oxygen-rich blood flows to the rest of your body via your artery. Leaflets, tiny tissue flaps that allow blood to move forward through your heart during half of your heartbeat, are housed in your valves. These leaflets are preparing to prevent blood from returning to the opposite half of your heartbeat. There are two leaflets in your left atrioventricular valve; however, the other leaflets are three. The mitral and tricuspid valves also have strong, fibrous strands of tissue called chordae tendineae that connect the valve leaflets to the papillose muscles in your ventricles. The chordae tendineae and papillose muscles ensure that the leaflets are stable in the event that blood moves backward. The tissues that make up the valve leaflets become stiffer in controller pathology, making the valve gap smaller and limiting the amount of blood that can pass through it. Your heart's function might not be affected by delicate narrowing. But the valve will become so thin (stenotic) that it will make your heart work less, make it pump harder, and put it under strain. Consequently, the rest of your body might not receive sufficient blood flow. Controller insufficiency, also known as regurgitation, incompetence, or a "leaky valve," occurs when material possession blood leaks backward across the valve when the leaflets do not fully close. Regurgitant flow is the term used to describe this backward flow. To compensate for this backward flow, your heart must pump harder, resulting in less blood flowing to the rest of your body. People with heart valve disease frequently present without symptoms [3-5].

But as the problem with the center valve gets worse, your heart beats harder to make up for the reduced blood flow. Heart valve disease may also be detected by numerous medical tests. Over time, continuity tests will help your provider understand how your valve disease is progressing and make treatment decisions for you. If the heart valves are leaky (a condition known as regurgitation), too thin (stenosis), or do not have a proper gap (atresia), problems will arise. Each person's heart valve disease is caused in different ways. With a heart valve problem, your state will change, or it will happen due to age or an infection. Even if you have a problem with your heart valve, you won't experience any symptoms. Alternately, your symptoms may manifest over time. The most common symptom is extreme weariness, or fatigue. You will also feel faint, lose consciousness, have trouble breathing, or feel like your heart is racing, fluttering, pounding, or skipping a beat. The majority of heart valve conditions can be treated. Medication has the potential to alleviate symptoms or prevent the condition from getting any worse. A failing heart valve may also require surgery or another procedure, which your doctor may recommend. Heart valve problems can lead to cardiopathy, infection, high pulmonary pressure, cardiopathy, or cardiopulmonary arrest if they are not promptly diagnosed and treated. Your heart's valves keep blood flowing in one direction only and are located at the exits of each of your four chambers. The four heart valves ensure that there is no backward outpouring by ensuring that blood flows freely in an extremely forward direction. Through the open angulate and mitral valves, blood flows into your ventricles from your right and left atria. The angle and mitral valves close when the ventricles are full. While the ventricles contract, this prevents blood from flowing backward into the atria. The pulmonary and arterial blood vessel valves are pushed open and blood is forced out of the ventricles as the ventricles begin to contract. The correct ventricle's blood flows into the arterial pulmonalis through the open pulmonary valve, and the ventricle's blood flows into the arterial blood vessel and the rest of the body through the open semilunar valve [6-8].

Discussion

The arterial blood vessel and pulmonary valves close when the ventricles stop getting and start relaxing. The ventricles are prevented from receiving blood by these valves. Every heartbeat repeats this pattern, allowing blood to flow indefinitely to the intestines, lungs, and body. Pathology of the controller this occurs when stiff or merged leaflets prevent a heart valve from fully opening. The guts may have to work extremely hard to pump blood through the narrowed gap. This could lead to cardiopathy and a variety of symptoms (more on those below). Pathology will develop in all four valves; angulate stenosis, pulmonary pathology, valvular heart disease, and stricture are all names for these conditions. Lack of controller capacity this can also be referred to as "leaky valve," "regurgitation," or "incompetence." It occurs when a valve does not close completely. A small amount of blood may leak across the valve if the valves do not seal properly. As the leak gets worse, the guts have to work harder to make up for the broken valve, which means less blood can get to the rest of the body. Putting your money on that valve changes; This condition is known as arterial blood vessel regurgitation, mitral regurgitation, respiratory organ regurgitation, or angulate regurgitation. Heart valve disease can occur before birth (congenital) or never pass from one generation to the next. Issues with the valves can occur at birth or as a result of infections, heart attacks, cardiovascular disease, or injury. The most common symptom of a problem with the heart valve is an unusual heartbeat. A medical instrument will be used to listen to a symptom by your doctor. However, many people without a retardant have heart murmurs. If you have a heart valve problem, tests on your heart will show it. Some valve issues are not serious enough to require treatment. For some, the valve replacement or repair might necessitate medication, medical procedures, or surgery. Any of your heart's valves can be affected by heart valve disorders. The flaps on your heart valves allow blood to flow through the upper and lower chambers of your heart and to the rest of your body with each heartbeat. The atria, which are the gut's uppermost chambers, and the ventricles, which are its lowermost chambers, are the atria.

Conclusion

When there is a lot of blood in the ventricles, they start to contract, forcing the valves of the respiratory organ and the arterial blood vessels to open. The arterial pulmonalis and arterial blood vessel then receive blood flow. Deoxygenated blood travels from the digestive tract to the lungs via the arterial pulmonalis. The largest artery in your body, the aorta, delivers oxygen-rich blood to the rest of your body. The gut valves prevent blood from copying or causing outpouring by ensuring that blood flows extremely forward. The valve can't do that job right if you have a heart valve disorder. The term "regurgitation" refers to an outpouring of blood, "pathology" refers to a narrowing of the valve gap, and "a combination of regurgitation and pathology" is another term for this.
