Overview

Medical Therapy

Most patients only need reassurance. Those with mitral valve prolapse and symptoms of dysautonomia (palpitations, chest pain) may often benefit from beta-blockers (e.g., propranolol). Patients with prior stroke and/or atrial fibrillation may require anticoagulation is, such as aspirin or warfarin.

Medical Therapy (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class I
"1. Aspirin therapy (75 to 325 mg per day) is recommended for symptomatic patients with MVP who experience cerebral transient ischemic attacks. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"2. In patients with MVP and atrial fibrillation, warfarin therapy is recommended for patients aged greater than 65 or those with hypertension, MR murmur, or a history of heart failure. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"3. Aspirin therapy (75 to 325 mg per day) is recommended for patients with MVP and atrial fibrillation who are less than 65 years old and have no history of MR, hypertension, or heart failure. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"4. In patients with MVP and a history of stroke, warfarin therapy is recommended for patients with MR, atrial fibrillation, or left atrial thrombus. (Level of Evidence: C)"
Class III
"1. In patients with MVP and a history of stroke who do not have MR, atrial fibrillation, or left atrial thrombus, warfarin therapy is reasonable for patients with echocardiographic evidence of thickening (5 mm or greater) and/or redundancy of the valve leaflets. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"2. In patients with MVP and a history of stroke, aspirin therapy is reasonable for patients who do not have MR, atrial fibrillation, left atrial thrombus, or echocardiographic evidence of thickening (5 mm or greater) or redundancy of the valve leaflets. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"3. Warfarin therapy is reasonable for patients with MVP with transient ischemic attacks despite aspirin therapy. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"4. Aspirin therapy (75 to 325 mg per day) can be beneficial for patients with MVP and a history of stroke who have contraindications to anticoagulants. (Level of Evidence: B)"
Class IIb
"1. Aspirin therapy (75 to 325 mg per day) may be considered for patients in sinus rhythm with echocardiographic evidence of high-risk MVP. (Level of Evidence: C)"
