what is the most important vital signs for valvular disorders?
blood pressure
valve problems might be because of:
genes
infection
ventricular contraction
systole
divides the left atrium and right atrium
atrial septum
a catheter inserted in the heart and guided to the narrowed valve

replacement of one or more heart of the heart valves with either an artificial heart valve or bioprosthesis
valve replacement

a disease of the heart muscle
cardiomyopathy
secondary to aortic regurgitation
dilated cardiomyopathy
it is caused when the left ventricle continuosly fully pump and pump
dilated cardiomyopathy
major pumping machine
left ventricle
cmp: there is a ‘‘problem in the ventricular septum’’ which divides the LV and RV
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
cmp: abnormal thickening of the heart muscle
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
cmp: the heart muscle becomes stiff or hard
restricitve cardiomyopathy
