En los pacientes con prolapso de la v\u00e1lvula mitral, la muerte s\u00fabita card\u00edaca se ha relacionado con la fibrilaci\u00f3n ventricular o la taquicardia ventricular, arritmias potencialmente mortales. Sin embargo, la relaci\u00f3n entre el prolapso de la v\u00e1lvula mitral y la muerte s\u00fabita card\u00edaca es incierta. En consonancia con un papel causativo del prolapso de la v\u00e1lvula mitral, se observa que el prolapso de la v\u00e1lvula mitral es la \u00fanica anomal\u00eda card\u00edaca en algunos pacientes en autopsia y en ciertos supervivientes de muerte s\u00fabita card\u00edaca.<\/p>\n<p>El prolapso de la v\u00e1lvula mitral es una condici\u00f3n en la que las aberturas de la v\u00e1lvula mitral del coraz\u00f3n no se cierran correctamente, en lugar de sobresalir hacia el aur\u00edcula izquierdo. La v\u00e1lvula mitral defectuosa no es capaz de controlar el flujo sangu\u00edneo, y como resultado, la sangre regresa a la c\u00e1mara desde la que sali\u00f3 (el aur\u00edcula izquierdo), una condici\u00f3n llamada regurgitaci\u00f3n mitral (RM). Las complicaciones incluyen endocarditis infecciosa y arritmias. El diagn\u00f3stico del prolapso de la v\u00e1lvula mitral se sospecha mediante examen f\u00edsico y se confirma mediante ecocardiograf\u00eda.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Ver la colocaci\u00f3n de la pieza original en <a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2020\/06\/19\/chy-carol-barr-died-floppy-valve-syndrome-cardiologists-interviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hollywood Life con Bonnie Faller.<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manhattan Cardiology\u2019s Founder and Cardiologist,\u00a0Dr. Robert Segal speaks to Hollywood Life With Bonnie Faller on Why FloppyValve Syndrome Killed Carol Barr Even though It&#8217;s \u2018Not Usually\u2019 Fatal. \u201cMitral valve prolapse can make the heart susceptible to cardiac arrhythmias which can cause sudden cardiac death.\u00a0 In patients with mitral valve prolapse, the sudden cardiac death has [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[126],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Floppy Valve Syndrome and Sudden Death<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Explore the case of Carol Barr and the rare but potentially fatal floppy valve syndrome.
