Why choose SGVP Holistic Hospital for Valvular Heart Disease Treatment in Ahmedabad?

What Is Valvular Heart Disease?

Valvular heart disease is a condition that affects one or more of the heart’s valves, including mitral, aortic, tricuspid, or pulmonary. These valves are essential for ensuring that blood flows through the heart in the correct direction.

If these valves become damaged, narrowed, leaky, or don’t close properly, it may disrupt the blood flow through the heart, making the heart work harder and reducing its efficiency.

If left untreated, they may lead to heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke. Early detection and proper treatment are essential to maintain the condition effectively.

Types of Valvular Heart Disease

Valvular heart disease may affect any of the four heart valves and includes, aortic, mitral, tricuspid, and pulmonary valves and generally falls into different categories. The different types of valvular heart disease, include

Valvular stenosis (narrowing): It occurs when one or more of the heart valves become stiff or thickened, resulting in a narrowed valve opening. This limits blood flow through the valve and forces the heart to work harder to pump blood. It can be tricuspid valve stenosis, pulmonary valve stenosis, mitral valve stenosis, and aortic valve stenosis depending on the valve involved.
Valvular prolapse: It happens when the valve flaps slip out of place or form a bulge that leads to improper or uneven closure of the heart valve. Due to this, the blood may leak backwards through the valve and disrupt the blood flow. It can be mitral, tricuspid, pulmonary, and aortic valve prolapse.
Valvular regurgitation (leaking): Regurgitation may occur when the valve fails to close properly, allowing the blood to flow backwards instead of moving forward through the heart or into the arteries. It can be tricuspid, pulmonary valve, mitral valve, and aortic valve regurgitation.

Causes And Risk Factors Of Valvular Heart Disease

The common causes of valvular heart disease, include

Rheumatic fever from untreated strep throat
Heart attack and high blood pressure

Angiography to measure pressure inside the heart chambers

Frequently Asked Questions

Click to get answers to your questions

What are the complications of heart valve disease?

Heart valve disease may eventually lead to serious complications, including heart failure, abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias), blood clots, high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries, stroke, and cardiac arrest. Without timely diagnosis and treatment, these conditions may become life-threatening and significantly impact heart function and overall health.

How long does it take to recover from heart valve surgery?

The time taken to recover after heart valve surgery depends on the individual’s medical condition and the type of treatment. An individual may be in the hospital for five to seven days after the surgery. It may take 4-8 weeks after the surgery to fully recover.

Is valve repair better than valve replacement?

Valve repair is often preferred over valve replacement because it preserves the natural valve and avoids the use of blood thinners for a long time. However, not all valves can be repaired. In such cases, valve replacement is required.
