ICD-10-AM Code: I34.1
This is a disorder of the mitral valve of the heart, where the valve prolapses into the atrium during ventricular contraction. It may result in mitral regurgitation. If so it is usually mild or trivial and more rarely may become severe.
Echocardiography is required, with specific criteria used to establish the diagnosis.
The relevant medical specialist is a cardiologist.
* another SOP applies
# non-SOP condition
The condition does not have any reliable, specific symptoms. The first clinical evidence is likely to be a heart murmur heard on ascultation (via a stethescope).
The only SOP worsening factor is for inability to obtain appropriate clinical management. Mild disease requires no treatment beyond observation. Severe mitral regurgitation may require surgery.

Investigative Documents
Medical Report - Inability to Obtain Appropriate Clinical Management - [GQACM] Preliminary questions [40546] 11109 — the condition under consideration has been accepted on the basis of inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration.
7334 [5] the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service. the condition under consideration permanently worsened. the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration at some time.
7379 [8] the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. 11234 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration and VEA service for the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. 11235 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration and operational service for the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. or 11236 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration and eligible service for the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. Clinical worsening and operational service [11235] or 7390 — the identified illness or injury which prevented the veteran from obtaining appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration is causally related to operational service. [13] [14] Clinical worsening and eligible service [11236] or 7391 — the identified illness or injury which prevented the veteran from obtaining appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration is causally related to eligible service.
