Patient was educated that signs and symptoms of tricuspid regurgitation can vary from mild to severe depending on the degree of regurgitation and the extent of obstruction to the blood return. Signs and symptoms are as follows: Diminished function of vital organs Compromised blood and oxygen supply to the vital organs affect their function gradually. Blood supply could be reduced to all organs, such as, brain, heart, lung, stomach, and kidneys, affecting their function. Palpitations [...]

Patient was educated that signs and symptoms of tricuspid regurgitation can vary from mild to severe depending on the degree of regurgitation and the extent of obstruction to the blood return. Signs and symptoms are as follows: Dizziness and lightheadedness Reduced output of blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation can contribute towards an overall reduction in output of blood from the left ventricle into the general circulation, resulting in low blood [...]

Patient was educated on tricuspid regurgitation and its pathogenesis as follows: Tricuspid valve is the valve between the right atrium and right ventricle and is also called right atrioventricular valve. Tricuspid valve permits one-way flow of blood, from the right atrium to right ventricle. Tricuspid regurgitation is a condition of incomplete closing of the tricuspid valve, resulting in back flow of blood from the right ventricle into the right atrium. Since more blood pools on [...]

Patient was educated that signs and symptoms of tricuspid stenosis can vary from mild to severe depending on the degree of stenosis and the extent of obstruction to the blood flow. Signs and symptoms are as follows: Palpitations and arrhythmia Damaged heart muscle, secondary to poor blood and oxygen supply to the heart muscle, can lead to palpitations and arrhythmias. Diminished function of vital organs Compromised blood and oxygen supply to the vital organs affect [...]
