prolapse of nitravalve if spelled correctly is a malfunction of the
heart that causes arrhytmia, irregular heart beat. What is this
condition and how can it be treated

Hi amiramb:

Thanks for the interesting question. The condition you are interested
in is called "Mitral Valve Prolapse" (MVP). I found a fantastic
website that explains what MVP is and how it is commonly treated at:

The Mitral Valve Prolapse Center of Alabama
URL: http://www.mvprolapse.com/

There, they define MVP as:

"When a person's mitral valve is somewhat looser than normal, it may
allow one of the portions of the valve to 'billow' backward slightly
into the upper chamber during the heart's contraction (fig. B). This
is called prolapse. This 'billowing' usually creates a clicking sound
that can be heard with a stethoscope.
Occasionally, there may be a small leak of blood backwards into the
upper chamber of the heart. This can be heard as a heart murmur;
however, the heart function is entirely normal. The heart still pumps
and receives an adequate blood supply. Prolapsing mitral valves do not
tend to degenerate over time."
