In this plan
Purpose, Prevention & Protection
- I understand LVH means the muscle wall of my heart's main pumping chamber has become thicker.
- I know high blood pressure is the most common cause; valve disease, sleep apnea, and hard training can also contribute.
- I know LVH is a heart finding and is not always the inherited disease called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
- I know untreated heart strain can lead to stiffness, abnormal rhythms, heart failure, stroke, or other problems.
