Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a condition where the leaflets of the mitral valve in the heart bulge (prolapse) into the left atrium during systole. This can lead to regurgitation of blood back into the left atrium, causing symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, and chest pain. HF (heart failure), ACD (anemia of chronic disease), CHS (congestive heart failure), and BBB (bundle branch block) are not directly related to MVP.
