Dr Ranjit Jagtap News According to Dr Ranjit Jagtap News, when the valves in your heart don't work properly, it's heart valve disease. Rheumatic fever, congenital abnormalities, degradation over time, as well as infection are all common causes of valve disease. Valvular stenosis or valvular insufficiency can cause this.



Aortic Valve Disease •

Any of various disorders that hinder one or more of the heart's valves from functioning properly to ensure appropriate circulation are referred to as heart valve disease. Heart valve illness, if left untreated, can have a negative impact on one's quality of life and can be fatal.

Heart valves can be repaired or replaced surgically in many situations, restoring normal function and allowing a return to normal activities.

The Ram Mangal Heart Foundation founded by Dr Ranjit Jagtap has a long history and a great reputation for treating heart valve disease as an international referral institution. This material will assist you in learning more about heart valve disease and the treatment choices available to you.


What is heart valve disease and how does it affect you? • Within your heart, there are four valves. The valves ensure that blood flows through the heart in just one way.

• The valves are made up of little flaps of tissue called leaflets that open to allow blood to flow forward through the heart for half of each heartbeat and close to prevent blood from going backward.

• Two of the valves' leaflets (mitral and tricuspid) include stiff, fibrous strands of tissue termed "chordae tendineae" that connect the valves to the muscles (papillary muscles) inside the ventricles' walls. The chordae tendineae and papillary muscles stabilise the leaflets against blood flow backward.


Conclusion

• If you have high blood pressure or cholesterol, you should go to Dr Ranjit Jagtap Clinic about how you might lower these numbers. Moreover, aortic valve disease has a link to both of these disorders.
