Text A. Rheumatic Endocarditis
The patient complained of a general malaise, early fatigue on exertion, cardiac discomfort and palpitation.
The physician determined him to have been having an increase of body temperature to a subfebrile level for a prolonged period of time. The patient stated that the onset of the disease had become irregular and accelerated on physical exertion.
The blood analysis revealed moderate leucocytosis and an elevated ESR. The electrocardiogram showed the changes in the most important readings. On percussion the doctor determined the heart to be slightly enlarged. These findings of the physical examination were confirmed by the X-ray examination.
While listening to the patient’s heart the doctor determined a soft systolic murmur to be heard at the heart apex. These symptoms were accompanied by diastolic murmur heard at the apex and base of the heart. The doctor estimated the murmurs to be varying in their intensity and duration. It was evidence of an inflammatory process in the valves. The doctor determined the organic changes in the mitral, aortic and tricuspid valves to be clearly marked.
The physician considered the patient to be ill with rheumatic endocarditis and insisted on his following a strict bed regimen at the in – patient department.
