Stenosis is a narrowing of the lumen of any anatomical formation, in this case, an opening.
The tricuspid (tricuspid or right atrioventricular) foramen is one of three openings located between the right atrium and the right ventricle of the heart, through which blood flows from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Stenosis of this opening impairs blood circulation, which can lead to serious health consequences.
Right atrioventricular orifice stenosis belongs to a class of arrhythmias that affect blood pressure. It manifests as a sudden and painful attack of palpitations, usually accompanied by shortness of breath. Stenosis has a low rate of disease progression and rarely progresses to complete occlusion of the atrioventicular orifice.
Patients suffering from stenosis of the right atriomentricular orifices exhibit symptoms of impaired myocardial contractility: heart pain, shortness of breath, vasodilation during exercise and an increase in the number of heart contractions at rest. This is due to the fact that blood does not pass through the hole as easily, increasing pressure in the right atrium, right ventricle and pulmonary artery. Symptoms of stenosis worsen with physical activity, so rest in a sitting position is recommended for such patients.
Typically, patients diagnosed with right atrioventricular orifice stenosis experience the following symptoms: - *blood pressure abnormalities.* High or low blood pressure Blood may stagnate in the right side of the heart due to impaired blood flow through the heart, or excess sodium in the blood from pressure on the veins or other types of kidney disease. . Given that the right side of the heart has a volume of blood that is in full flow, the pressure may rise above normal levels. Parietal nervous flow with a closed tricuspid
