Because mitral stenosis can lead to changes in the mitral valve, particularly causing excessive pressure in the left ventricle, this excessive pressure can lead to enlargement of the left atrium, which are complementary conditions.
During this period, it is still important to actively manage the condition, using medication treatment. If the area of stenosis is relatively large, surgical treatment is needed, as balloon dilation can currently be used to alleviate this condition. Early treatment is best to relieve clinical symptoms. At the same time, it is also important to actively monitor changes in heart rate, blood pressure, and pulse, so as to control the heart rate and reduce myocardial oxygen consumption.
