🫀 Mitral Stenosis — What Every Nursing & Med Student Needs to Know
The mitral valve controls blood flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle. When it narrows, everything changes. Here's the full breakdown: 👇
🔍 What It Is
Stiff or thickened valve leaflets restrict blood flow. Compare a normal opening vs a stenotic one — the difference is dramatic.
⚠️ Causes
🔹 Rheumatic Fever — still the #1 cause globally
🔹 Calcification — age-related calcium buildup
🔹 Congenital Defects — rare, but present from birth
🩺 Symptoms
1️⃣ Dyspnea (shortness of breath)
2️⃣ Fatigue
3️⃣ Palpitations
4️⃣ Cough (often worse at night)
5️⃣ Chest pain
💊 Treatment
🟣 Medications — diuretics for congestion, beta-blockers for atrial fibrillation
🔴 Balloon Valvuloplasty — minimally invasive procedure to widen the valve
🟠 Valve Repair/Replacement — surgical intervention for severe cases
📌 Save this for your cardiology rotation or NCLEX prep!
Less time cramming. More memory. 🧠
