The murmur of aortic valve stenosis is mainly a systolic ejection murmur from the aortic valve auscultation area.
The aortic valve is the gateway to the outflow tract of the left ventricle. In the presence of aortic stenosis, the ejection of blood from the heart is restricted, and the blood flow through the aortic valve becomes relatively faster, which can produce an additional murmur and tremor, similar to a jet-like murmur.
Aortic valve stenosis may lead to increased left ventricular load, followed by left heart failure, lower blood pressure, and relative stasis of blood in the pulmonary circulation, resulting in symptoms such as chest tightness, telangiectasia, and waking up at night with suffocation.
Failure to correct aortic stenosis in time will have an impact on right heart function, and even symptoms of right heart failure such as bilateral lower extremity edema, abdominal distension, and nausea.
Aortic valve stenosis is relatively rare, but those with symptoms need to be treated by a specialist as soon as possible, otherwise it may lead to secondary changes in the heart, and in severe cases may lead to sudden death.
