What is Valvular Heart Disease Overview for NCLEX about?

Valvular heart disease occurs when the heart valves do not open or close properly, preventing normal blood flow. It can be congenital or acquired through degeneration, rheumatic fever, or infection. Aortic stenosis occurs when the aortic valve does not open fully, restricting blood flow out of the left ventricle and causing it to enlarge over time. Aortic regurgitation occurs when the aortic valve does not close properly, allowing blood to backflow from the aorta into the left ventricle with each heartbeat.
