Aortic valve regurgitation, a distinct form of heart valve disease, is primarily defined by the backward flow of blood into the heart, resulting from the aortic valve's failure to close securely. This condition, often referred to as aortic insufficiency or leaky aortic valve, brings about a unique set of challenges for the affected individuals.
The aortic valve, which ideally should act as a one-way gate allowing blood to flow from the heart to the body, starts to malfunction. The leaflets of the aortic valve, designed to close tightly after each heartbeat, fail to do so. This dysfunction results in some of the blood, rather than continuing its journey out of the heart, leaking back into the heart with each heartbeat.
Such an anomaly can put undue stress on the heart, making timely detection and proficient treatment pivotal. It's a condition that warrants a comprehensive understanding, and our team at Corrielus Cardiology is committed to providing this in an empathetic, patient-centric manner.
Aortic stenosis is a prevalent cardiovascular condition, particularly among older people. It's a narrowing of the aortic valve, the central passageway that directs blood from the heart to the body.
The aorta is the body’s central artery that transports blood from the heart to the rest of the body. If its valve gets blocked or becomes narrow, it may not be able to fully open and direct proper blood flow from the heart to the body. Aortic stenosis can be mild, moderate, or severe and may occur in children or adults.
