Heart Valve Disease

Abstract

Valvular heart failure is heart failure due to primary valvular heart disease or complicated by secondary valvular heart disease. This chapter describes the aetiological classification, prevalence, pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of valvular heart failure, including heart transplantation and mechanical circulatory support.
