  Heart defects are diseases caused by a violation of the structure of the heart valves or a narrowing of the openings that they close. Patients with heart defects mainly suffer from signs of heart failure.  It is important to pay attention to the prevention of the development of acquired heart defects. Measures to prevent the development of acquired heart defects include a healthy lifestyle, rehabilitation of infectious foci, hardening, and improving the fitness of the body. For the purpose of monitoring, a follow-up by a cardiologist is necessary.

   When a heart defect is detected in a patient, he is put on the dispensary register and recommended to lead a healthy lifestyle: avoid heavy physical exertion, eat rationally, normalize body weight, give up smoking and alcohol. These simple rules will help prevent the progression of the disease. Be healthy!!!
