Mitral regurgitation

Mitral regurgitation | Clinical Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine | Congestive Heart Failure

Mitral regurgitation (MR), Mitral insufficiency or mitral incompetence is a disorder of the heart in which the mitral valve does not close properly when the heart pumps out blood. It is the abnormal leaking of blood backwards from the left ventricle, through the mitral valve, into the left atrium, when the left ventricle contracts, i.e. there is regurgitation of blood back into the left atrium. Mitral regurgitation is the most common form of valvular heart disease.

Symptoms associated with Mitral regurgitation are:

·         Congestive heart failure

·         Shortness of breath

·         Pulmonary edema

·         Orthopnea

·         Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea

·         Tachycardia and many more.

The pathophysiology of MR can be broken into three phases of the disease process:

·         Acute Phase

·         Chronic Phase

·         Decompensated phase.
