Mitral regurgitation – pathophysiology
•
•
•
•
•
Leaking mitral valve
 LV emptying
 LV filling
 LV dilatation
LV stretch  contractile failure
•
•
•
•
 LA pressure
LA stretch
Atrial arrhythmia (atrial fibrillation)
Thrombo-embolic risk
– stroke (cerebrovascular accident)
– heart attack (myocardial infarct)
