Yu no bɔt di at valv dɛn? (Heart Valves) Lɛ wi tɔk bɔt dis simpul wan!

Yu dɔn ɛva wɔnda aw yu at de wok wɔndaful wan? I nɔ jɔs bi mit, na wɔndaful mashin we de pɔmp blɔd ɔlsay na wi bɔdi. So insay dis at, sɔm pat dɛn de we de wok lɛk domɔt. Wi kin kɔl dɛn at valv. Dɛn tin ya kin opin ɛn lɔk di rayt tɛm fɔ ɛp blɔd fɔ kɔmɔt na wan say to di ɔda say, ɛn dɛn kin stɔp bak fɔ mek blɔd nɔ flɔ na di rɔng say.

Aw di at valv dɛn kin wok? I wɔndaful, nɔto so?

Tink bɔt dis we: at we gɛt wɛlbɔdi tan lɛk motoka we de drayv na rod we dɛn mek fayn fayn wan. Di blɔd de flɔ ɔdasay. Wi at gɛt 4 men rum dɛn. di כp chεmba dεm na di rayt atria εn di lεft atria (dεn kכl am bak atria), εn di lכw chεmba dεm na di rayt vεntrikl εn di lεft vεntrikl (dεn kכl dεm bak di vεntrikl).

Insay bitwin dɛn chamba ya, na di valv dɛn we a bin tɔk bɔt. Dɛn tin ya kin mek wit tin, bɔt rili strɔng flap dɛn na di tisu. Wi kin kɔl dɛn liflet ya bak (ɔ cusps). Dɛn valv dɛn ya kin opin ɛn lɔk fɔ dayrɛkt di blɔd di rayt say.

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, na dis kin apin, pan ɔl we na rili kɔmpleks prɔses, lɛ wi mek am izi fɔ ɔndastand:

• Fɔs, blɔd we nɔ gɛt ɔksijɛn (dat na blɔd we di bɔdi dɔn yuz ɛn we nɔ gɛt ɔksijɛn) de kɔmɔt na difrɛn pat dɛn na di bɔdi ɛn gɛda na di rayt atria.
• Dɔn, da blɔd de go insay di rayt atria tru di trikuspid valv. We dis valv opin, di blɔd de go dɔŋ, ɛn we i lɔk, i nɔ de mek i kam bak ɔp.
• frכm di rayt vεntrikl, dεn de pכmp dis bכdi tru di pulmonari valv to di lכng dεm. Na insay di lɔng dɛn kin gi dis blɔd nyu ɔksijɛn ɛn pul di kabon dayɔgzayd.
• Naw di nyu blɔd we klin, we ful-ɔp wit ɔksijɛn, de go insay di lɛft atria.
• nεks, di at de sεnd dis bכdi tru di mitral valv (wi kin kכl am bak ``Mitral Valv'' biכs i gεt tu flap) insay di lεft vεntrikl.
• fכ finish, dis bכdi we gεt כksijεn we de kכmכt na di lεft vεntrikl de pas tru di aorta valv go insay di aorta, we na di big bכdi we de na di bכdi, εn frכm de i de sheb to di bכdi.

Si? Dɛn valv ya de wok lɛk `trafik polis` we gɛt sɛns, we de mek blɔd nɔ go na di rɔng say, ɛn sɛn am na di rayt ples di rayt tɛm. di "lub-dub" sawnd we wi de yeri we di at de bit na we dεn valv dεm ya de opin εn klos.

Wetin na di 4 men valv dεm na di at? Wetin dɛn kin du?

Na 4 kayn valv dɛn de na wi at. Ɛni valv gɛt spɛshal say, shep, ɛn wok. Lɛ wi tek wan luk pan wetin dɛn bi.

1. Trikuspid Valv we de na di bɔdi

Dis wan get dem tri `leaflet` we a menshon. Na dat mek dɛn kɔl am "tri-lif".

• di say we yu de: Bitwin di rayt atria εn di rayt vεntrikl.
• Wetin fɔ du:i de mek di bכdi we nכ gεt כksijεn kכmכt na di rayt atria to di rayt vεntrikl. i de mek bak di bכdi nכ fכ fכlכ bak insay di rayt atria we di rayt vεntrikl kכntrakt. Tink bɔt am lɛk domɔt we jɔs de opin wan we.

2. Valv we de na di pulmonari

Dis valv gɛt tri flap dɛn bak.

• di say we yu de: bitwin di rayt vεntrikl εn di pulmonari at.
• Wetin i de du: I de mek di bכdi we de kכmכt na di rayt vεntrikl go insay di pulmonari at. dis atεri na in de kכri bכdi go na di lכng fכ pik כksijεn. di pulmonari valv de mek di bכdi nכ fכ fכlכ bak insay di rayt vεntrikl frכm di pulmonari at.

3. Mitral Valv we de na di wɔl

I gɛt tu valv dɛn. Na dat mek dɛn kɔl am bicuspid. Di nem we kɔmɔn pas ɔl na ``Mitral Valve''.

• di say we yu de: bitwin di lεft atrium εn di lεft vεntrikl.
• wetin i de du: I de mek di bכdi we gεt כksijεn frכm di lεft atria (frכm di lכng) pas insay di lεft vεntrikl. i de mek bak bכdi nכ fכ fכlכ bak insay di lεft atria we di lεft vεntrikl de kכntrakt εn pכmp bכdi to di bכdi. Dis na valv we rili impɔtant.

4. Di Aɔtik Valv

Dis valv gɛt tri flap dɛn bak.

• di say we yu de: Bitwin di lεft vεntrikl εn di aorta.
• wetin i de du: Dis na di say we di bכdi we gεt כksijεn de fכm frכm di lεft vεntrikl na di at to di aorta. As a bin dɔn tɔk, di aorta na di big blɔd vesel na wi bɔdi. Dis na di say we di blɔd we gɛt ɔksijɛn kin go na di wan ol bɔdi. so, wetin dis `(Aortic Valve)` de du na fכ mek bכdi nכ fכ fכlכ bak insay di lεft vεntrikl frכm di aorta.

Wi at kin wɛl nɔmɔ we dɛn 4 valv ya wok fayn, di rayt tɛm, ɛn di rayt we. If wan pan dɛn nɔ de na in ples smɔl, i kin afɛkt di wan ol sistɛm, jɔs lɛk if wan pat pan mashin we de wok fayn brok, di wan ol mashin kin stɔp.

Wetin na di sik dɛm wae kin afɛkt di at valv dɛm?

Naw yu kin si aw dɛn valv dɛn ya impɔtant ɛn aw dɛn kɔmpleks. So, if wan pan dɛn valv ya nɔ wok fayn, wi at fɔ wok tranga wan fɔ pɔmp blɔd. I tan lɛk se yu de du os wok wit domɔt we dɔn brok. As tɛm de go, di at kin wik.

Bɔku tin dɛn de we kin mek pɔsin gɛt prɔblɛm wit di at valv:

• di chenj dεm we de apin wit di ej: As wi de ol, lεk כda pat dεm na di bכdi, di valv dεm kin gεt sכm chenj dεm bak. Di valv dɛn kin tik ɛn gɛt kalsiɔm.
• Conngenital Hat Disease: Dis min hat sik we de de we dɛn bɔn am. Sɔntɛnde, di valv dɛn kin mis, ɔ dɛn kin gɛt di rayt saiz ɔ shep. fכ egzampl, di kכndishכn fכ di ``Aortic Valve`` usay na tu valv nכmכ de (Bicuspid Aortic Valve).
• Infɛkshɔn dɛn: .Sɔm baktriyal infɛkshɔn, lɛk rεumatik fiva kin pwɛl di at valv dɛm. Infεkshכn εndokadaytis na siriכs infεkshכn bak we de afekt di valv dεm.
• Ɔda sik dɛn we kin mek pɔsin sik: Fɔ ɛgzampul, dayabitis we pɔsin nɔ ebul fɔ kɔntrol, ay blɔd prɛshɔn, at atak, ɔ ɔda at sik kin afɛkt di valv dɛn bak.

Tri men kayn prɔblɛm dɛn de we dɛn kin si pan di at valv dɛn. Ɛni wan pan dɛn prɔblɛm ya kin apin na ɛni wan pan di 4 valv dɛn.

1. Rigurgitation: Dis na we di valv nɔ de lɔk fayn, we de mek di blɔd lik bak. Tink bɔt am lɛk domɔt we nɔ de lɔk fayn ɛn tin dɛn we kɔmɔt na do de kam insay Sɔm pipul dɛn kin kɔl dis bak ‘lik hat valv’. Wan spɛshal kayn dis na we dɛn kɔl prolaps . Dis na we wan valv flap de fold bak ɔ bulge. bכku tεm dεn kin si dis na di Mitral Valv (Mitral Valve Prolapse).

2. Stenosis: Dis na we di valv liflet dεm tik, stif, כ stik togeda. Di valv nɔ kin opin fayn, ɛn di say we di blɔd kin pas kin smɔl. Tink bɔt am lɛk se domɔt nɔ de opin fayn, ɛn di rod kin blok. Dis kin mek di at fɔ wok tranga wan fɔ push blɔd.

3. Atresia: Dis na sɔm kayn sik ɛn nɔ kin apin so ɔltɛm. Wetin kin apin pan dis na dat wan valv nɔ kin fɔm ɔl. Dat min se wan valv nɔ de frɔm we dɛn bɔn am. Bɔku tɛm, dɛn kin no dis we dɛn bɔn am.

Dɛn tin ya kin put mɔ strɛs pan di at, we nɔ kin fayn fɔ di at fɔ lɔng tɛm. Na dat mek i impɔtant fɔ no bɔt dis.

Wetin na di sayn dɛm wae de sho se yu gɛt prɔblɛm wit yu at valv? Aw wi kin no dɛn?

Sɔm pipul kin gɛt hat valv prɔblɛm bɔt nɔr kin sho ɛni sayn , mɔr lɛk di fɔs tɛm. Na dat de mek pɔsin fred smɔl. Bikɔs di at valv sik kin go bifo as tɛm de go, di sayn dɛm kin jɔs apia as yu de ol ɔr as de sik de kam tranga.

Yu no se yu at de grɔmbul na di sawnd we yu at valv dɛn de opin ɛn lɔk? di fכs sayn fכ hat valv prכblεm kin bi ``Hat Murmur'' we dכkta de yεri wit stεtoskop . Na wan sawnd we nɔ kɔmɔn we dɛn kin yɛri we di at de bit, lɛk "s...s..." ɔ sɔm ɔda ɛkstra sawnd. כltu, nכto כl di ``At Mכmכr'' dεn kin kכz fכ wan valv prכblεm. Sɔntɛnde wan kayn de we dɛn kɔl ``Innocent Heart Murmur'' we nɔ de du bad, mɔ pan pikin dɛn. Na dɔktɔ nɔmɔ go ebul fɔ no fɔ tru.

Ɔda sayn dɛm wae yu kin si na:

• Chɛst pen ɔ diskɔmfɔt lɛk chɛst tayt.

Ustɛm a fɔ go to dɔktɔ?

If yu gɛt prɔblɛm wit yu at valv, yu fɔ tek tɛm mɔ bɔt ɛndokadaytis . Dis na infεkshכn na di insay layn na di at כ in valv dεm. Dis kin mek pɔsin in layf de pan denja.

So, if yu si sayn dɛm fɔ se yu gɛt infekshɔn , i min se:

• Fiva we wi nɔ no wetin mek i gɛt

• Trot de at

If yu gɛt ɛni wan pan dɛn sik ya, go to yu dɔktɔ wantɛm wantɛm . Nɔ delay.

Dɔn bak, if ɛni wan pan di at valv simptom dɛm we wi bin dɔn tɔk bɔt (chɛst pen, shɔt briz, taya, swel) tan lɛk nyu ɔ if di simptom dɛm we dɔn de dɔn wɔs, go to dɔktɔ wantɛm wantɛm.

Fɔ dɔn, dis na di impɔtant tin we yu fɔ mɛmba!

Okay, so a op se yu gɛt gud ɔndastandin bɔt at valv frɔm wetin wi dɔn tɔk bɔt tide. Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, dɛn valv dɛn ya tan lɛk wan rili impɔtant, smɔl sistem we gɛt domɔt dɛn na wi at. If dɛn nɔ de wok fayn, i kin afɛkt di wan ol bɔdi in wɛlbɔdi.

• Mek di dɔktɔ dɛn lisin to yu at bit. If dɔktɔ yɛri wan ɔnusual ``Heart Murmur``, dɛn go invɛstigat am. Dɛn go tɛl yu if i siriɔs ɔ i nɔ siriɔs.
• Pe atɛnshɔn to di sayn dɛn we de sho se yu gɛt dis sik. Nɔ ignore tin dɛm lɛk chɛst pen, shɔt briz, taya, ɛn swel. Dɛn kin bi sayn dɛn we yu bɔdi de gi yu.
• Fɔ fala di we aw yu de liv fayn layf. Fɔ it fayn, fɔ du ɛksɛsayz, fɔ avɔyd fɔ smok, ɛn fɔ kɔntrol yu wet ɔl rili impɔtant fɔ yu at.
