Mitral stenosis with insufficiency - what does this mean
Mitral stenosis with insufficiency occurs when the mitral valve of the heart becomes narrowed and thickened, reducing the amount of blood that can flow through the valve and causing blood to back up in the left atrium. this can lead to a decrease in blood flow to the rest of the body, as well as an increase in pressure in the left atrium which can cause the valve to leak, resulting in mitral valve insufficiency.
What happens during the disease - mitral stenosis with insufficiency
Mitral stenosis with insufficiency is a condition caused by the narrowing of the mitral valve, which is located between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart. this narrowing causes the valve to not open properly, resulting in a decrease in the amount of blood that is able to flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle. this decrease in blood flow can lead to an increase in pressure in the left atrium, which can cause the mitral valve to leak, leading to a decrease in the amount of oxygen-rich blood that is able to reach the rest of the body.

Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal of the treatment: Reduce the symptoms of Mitral Stenosis with Insufficiency and improve the patient's quality of life.
- Prescribe medications to reduce symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and palpitations.
- Recommend lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake and avoiding strenuous activities.
- Perform a balloon valvuloplasty to open the mitral valve.
- Perform a mitral valve replacement if the valve is severely damaged.
- Perform a percutaneous mitral valve repair if the valve is not severely damaged.
- Prescribe anticoagulants to reduce the risk of blood clots.
- Refer the patient to a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
17 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Mitral stenosis with insufficiency - Prevention
The primary prevention of mitral stenosis with insufficiency is to reduce the risk of developing the condition in the first place. this can be done through lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, avoiding smoking, and eating a balanced diet. additionally, regular check-ups with a physician can help to detect any early signs of the condition.
