I'm really concerned about something called "poor R wave progression" in V2, V3, and V4 mentioned in my recent medical test results. I'm not entirely sure what it means. Could it be serious? Should I be taking any special precautions because of it? I've got the reports ready if you'd like to take a look.

View allI had an AVR with a mechanical valve about 9 years ago and I'm wondering about my life expectancy now. I make sure to go for my yearly checkups, and my last echo showed an EF of 60, LVDD of 50mm, LA 36mm, with PW and IVS at 1.1cm. My INR level is 2.87. Could you give me some insights on these numbers and what they mean for my future?
With a mechanical valve replacement, it is important to maintain a stable INR to prevent complications such as thrombosis or bleeding. Your current INR of 2.87 is slightly higher than the recommended range for mechanical valves, which is usually between 2.0 to 3.0. It is good that you are going for yearly checkups to monitor your condition. To help manage your INR within the target range, you can consider using Warfarin (Coumadin) at a dosage prescribed by your healthcare provider. Regular monitoring and adjustments to your medication may be necessary to keep your INR within the desired range and reduce the risk of complications. As for life expectancy after AVR with a mechanical valve, it can vary depending on various factors including overall health, adherence to medication, lifestyle factors, and regular follow-up care. It is essential to continue with your yearly checkups and follow your healthcare provider's recommendations for optimal management of your condition.
