Heart Valve Clinic

The human heart is a composite organ that supplies oxygen rich blood from the heart to the body. It has four chambers and four valves which ensure blood flows in a designated direction only. The four valves in the heart are the Tricuspid Valve, the Pulmonary Valve, the Mitral Valve and the Aortic Valve. In heart valve disease, one or more of the valves in your heart don't open or close properly causing the blood flow through your heart to your body to be disrupted. Heart valve disease may be present at birth (congenital). It can also occur in adults due to many causes and conditions, such as infections and other heart conditions.
