What are the symptoms and hazards of tricuspid regurgitation?


Empathy in every care, excellence in every treatment.
Symptoms of tricuspid regurgitation usually include palpitation, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting.1. Palpitation After tricuspid regurgitation occurs, it may lead to increased resistance to blood flow from the heart. The heart needs to work harder to ensure normal blood circulation, resulting in accelerated contraction of the myocardium, followed by palpitation symptoms. 2. Abdominal distension Tricuspid regurgitation increases the filling pressure of the right ventricle, affecting the smooth progress of venous return, resulting in venous congestion and fluid retention, which may lead to abdominal discomfort and abdominal distension. 3. Nausea and vomiting Tricuspid regurgitation may lead to insufficient blood supply in the gastrointestinal tract or edema in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in nausea, vomiting and other discomfort symptoms. The harm of tricuspid regurgitation generally includes atrial fibrillation, induced pulmonary hypertension, heart failure, etc. 1. Tricuspid regurgitation may lead to increased cardiac load, which may lead to cardiac function decline, arrhythmia and atrial fibrillation for a long time. 2. Induced pulmonary hypertension Tricuspid regurgitation will cause blood to flow back to the right atrium, which may lead to increased right ventricular load, increase right ventricular pressure, affect blood circulation in the lungs, and may induce pulmonary hypertension. 3. Long-term tricuspid regurgitation causing heart failure may lead to decreased right ventricular dilatation and contraction function, causing heart failure, manifested as shortness of breath, edema, dyspnea and other symptoms.
