About this document
Coarctation Aorta (Q A) by panhanun888 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital heart defect characterized by the narrowing of the aorta, which can lead to increased heart workload and various symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests, and management may include medications and surgical interventions, although the condition cannot be cured. Lifelong follow-up is necessary due to the risk of complications such as high blood pressure and potential re-narrowing of the aorta.
