Q

What is the cardiac adaptation to a stenotic valve?

Does a stenotic valve cause a pressure or volume overload?

A

inc thickness of wall = concentric hypertrophy

pressure overload due to inc pressure upstream

Q

What is the cardiac adaptation to regurgitation?

Does a regurgitation cause an pressure or volume overload?

A

eccentric hypertrophy (enlarged chamber inc mass but normal thickness)

= heart dialtes without getting thicker!!
(volume overload bc volume increases upstream)
