szívhiba

Szívhiba is a Hungarian term referring to a heart defect. It encompasses a range of conditions present at birth, known as congenital heart defects, as well as acquired heart conditions that develop later in life. Congenital heart defects are structural abnormalities of the heart that occur while the fetus is developing. These can include issues with the heart walls, valves, or blood vessels connected to the heart. Acquired heart defects can result from various factors such as infections, high blood pressure, heart attacks, or rheumatic fever.

Symptoms of szívhiba can vary greatly depending on the severity and type of the defect. Some individuals may have no noticeable symptoms, while others may experience shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, or a bluish tint to the skin. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiogram, and sometimes more advanced imaging tests.

Treatment for szívhiba depends on the specific condition. Mild defects may require no treatment or only regular monitoring. More severe cases may necessitate medication to manage symptoms, surgical repair of the defect, or interventional procedures. Early detection and appropriate management are crucial for improving outcomes and quality of life for individuals with heart defects. Regular medical check-ups are important for individuals with a known heart condition.
