What symptoms caused by mitral valve abnormalities?

If you have symptoms of coughing, shortness of breath, unable to lie down, no energy, or walking up just 2 flights of stairs makes you more tired than normal, these symptoms… may be warning signs of heart abnormalities or pulmonary edema. If the problem is caused by the heart valve. It is usually found in the heart valve. That separates the left atrium and left ventricle. What in medical terms is call the “mitral valve.” If the mitral valve leaks. It will cause blood in the left ventricle system to flow back into the left atrium. The left atrium therefore receives more blood than normal and causes blood congestion in the heart system. Therefore, the blood from the lungs. That has purified will not fully return to the heart, causing blood congestion in the lungs.

Mitral valve revascularization with TMVR helps patients recover faster

In the past, medical technology was not yet advanced. So patients with heart valves had to treat with open chest surgery. Which required a long hospital stay, pain from the surgical wound, and a high risk of complications. Especially in patients aged 75 and over.

But today, doctors can treat without opening the chest or using a heart-lung machine.

They can implant a small artificial heart valve through a catheter inserted into a vein in the groin, which has a very small wound, so patients do not have to recuperate for a long time, do not lose blood during treatment, and have fewer complications than surgery. After treatment, abnormal symptoms related to mitral valve disease will improve, allowing patients to return to their daily lives with a good quality of life.

Who is TMVR suitable for?

• Elderly people, people with comorbidities, โปรโมชั่นพิเศษจาก UFABET สมัครตอนนี้ รับโบนัสทันที or people. Who have had a heart valve replacement surgery for more than 7 years. Whose original valve is deteriorated or damaged.
• People who have a mitral valve stenosis or leak and have enough plaque to allow an artificial valve to attach to the original valve.

Don’t want to have heart valve problems? Reduce your risk with these methods.

• Exercise regularly , such as brisk walking (always consult your doctor first). Regular exercise can help lower your “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and increase your “good” cholesterol (HDL).
• Control your blood pressure, blood sugar levels, breathing problems, and other risk factors for heart disease by getting regular checkups and following your doctor’s advice.
• Maintain a healthy weight to prevent obesity or thinness. People who overweight or obese have a higher risk of heart disease than the general population.
• Quit smoking and try to avoid secondhand smoke. Toxins in cigarette smoke increase the risk of heart disease and can cause a heart attack, as well as add other risk factors that can make heart disease worse.
• Eat a healthy diet by limiting your intake of sodium, saturated fat, trans fat, sugar, and alcohol. Instead, eat vegetables, unsweetened fruits, whole grains, lean meats, fish, and legumes to build a foundation for good health from eating “heart-healthy foods.”
