What Does MVP Stand For?

MVP stands for Mitral Valve Prolapse

MVP, or Mitral Valve Prolapse, is a common heart condition characterized by the improper closure of the mitral valve, which separates the heart's left upper chamber (the atrium) from the left lower chamber (the ventricle). This prolapse can lead to a variety of symptoms, including palpitations, chest pain, and fatigue, though many individuals remain asymptomatic. MVP is generally diagnosed through echocardiography and is often managed with regular monitoring, lifestyle modifications, and, in some cases, medication or surgical intervention if complications arise.
