Abstract

 Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is an acquired heart disease with heart valve disorder that persists due to previous acute rheumatic fever, mainly affecting the mitral valve (75%), the aorta (25%), rarely affecting the tricuspid valve, and never affecting the valves lungs. A 52-year-old male patient, domiciled in Mutiara (Alue Awe) Lhokseumawe City, Indonesia. Come for outpatient treatment at Polyclinic of Cut Meutia Hospital. Patients are who routinely go to the polyclinic every month to take medicine. The patient complains of left chest pain, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, cough, tired easily during activities, especially during strenuous activities. History of Diabetes Mellitus is denied, history of hypertension (+). The patient admitted that he was diagnosed with rheumatic heart disease at the age of 19 years. The patient has been undergoing treatment for 33 years by routinely complete checks related to his heart every year and regularly taking medication at the polyclinic every month. The patient admitted at junior high school age he often experienced attacks of fever that went up and down accompanied by pain in the throat. Physical examination found: Compos Mentis (E4V5M6), BP:140/40 mmHg, HR : 92x/i, RR: 23x/i, T; 37.1°C, SpO2 : 95%. Chest examination showed vesicular breath sounds, Rhonki (-), Wheezing (-), Diastolic murmur (+).Echocardiography showed an EF of 70%. AR Severe, MR Moderate. AML Prolapse, Calcification (+), LV Dilatation, LVH Eccentric
