Valvular Disease: Diagnosis

Description: The heart has four valves that ensure that blood flows in the correct direction. A defective valve can either fail to close completely and leak (regurgitation), or cannot open completely so that blood pumps through a smaller opening (stenosis). All valves can be affected. This course presents background information about several exams, both laboratory and physical, that assist in the diagnosis of valvular disease.
