Explain mitral valve prolapse based on a true story.

根據真實故事解釋二尖瓣脫垂。

Meet Maddie.

見見瑪蒂。

At a recent doctor's appointment, a pediatrician discovered that her daughter, Lacey, has a heart murmur.

最近一次看病時，兒科醫生髮現女兒萊西有心臟雜音。

After being evaluated with an echocardiogram, Lacey was diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse if the heart was cut in half.

經過超聲心動圖的評估，萊西被診斷為二尖瓣脫垂，如果心臟被切成兩半。

This is what mitral valve prolapse would look like compared with a typical heart.

這就是二尖瓣脫垂與典型心臟的對比。

Maddy is still unsure what this means.

麥蒂還是不知道這意味著什麼。

But Lacey's cardiologists Dr Goldstein is happy to explain to start mitral valve prolapse, also known as M v P.

但萊西的心臟病專家Goldstein博士很樂意解釋開始二尖瓣脫垂，也稱為M v P。

No, not that kind of M V P is when both the flaps or leaflets on the mitral valve collapsed backward into the left atrium.

不，不是那種M V P是二尖瓣上的瓣膜或葉子都向後塌陷到左心房的時候。

The most common cause is abnormally stretchy valve leaflets, although it can also be caused by other health problems such as connective tissue diseases.

最常見的原因是瓣膜小葉異常伸展，不過也可以由其他健康問題引起，如結締組織疾病。

Some people with MVP might not experience any symptoms, while others may experience erasing or irregular heartbeat, dizziness or lightheadedness, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, fatigue and chest pain.

有些MVP患者可能沒有任何症狀，而有些人則可能會出現心跳消退或不規律、頭暈或頭昏、呼吸困難、氣短、疲勞和胸痛。

Yeah, Dr Goldstein tells Maddy.

是的，戈爾茨坦博士告訴馬蒂。

Not to worry, because typically, M V.

不用擔心，因為通常情況下，M V。

P is a minor issue.

P是個小問題。

But Lacey should still get checked regularly because sometimes it can become very serious.

但是萊西還是要定期檢查，因為有時候會變得很嚴重。

For example, it can cause arrhythmias that could become life threatening.

例如，它可能會導致心律失常，從而危及生命。

Also, in certain cases, the prolapsed valve regurgitates, or let's blood leak backward, which in large amounts conform blood clots that potentially lead to stroke or heart attack, depending on severity.

另外，在某些情況下，脫垂的瓣膜反流，或讓血液倒流，大量符合血栓，根據嚴重程度，有可能導致中風或心臟病發作。

Dr Goldstein reveals that he may treat Lacey with medication.

戈德斯坦醫生透露，他可能會用藥物治療萊西。

But if her symptoms get worse, the left ventricle of the heart becomes enlarged or the heart function worsens.

但如果她的症狀越來越嚴重，心臟左心室就會擴大或心臟功能惡化。

They may need to repair or replace her mitral valve.

他們可能需要修復或更換她的二尖瓣。

Dr.

博士

Goldstein assures Maddie that now the condition has Bean diagnosed.

戈爾茨坦向麥蒂保證，現在病情已經豆診斷出來了。

Lazy will be in good hands, they will closely monitor her, and if the problem becomes severe, they will appropriately treat her to ensure she is healthy.

懶懶會有很好的照顧，他們會對它進行嚴密的監控，如果問題變得嚴重，他們會對它進行適當的治療，確保它的健康。
