High-Yield Explanation
Tricuspid insufficiency (TI), a valvular hea disease also called tricuspid regurgitation (TR), refers to the failure of the hea's tricuspid valve to close properly during systole . This defect allows the blood to flow backwards, reducing its efficiency. Regurgitation may be due to a structural change of components of the tricuspid valve apparatus, a lesion can be primary (intrinsic abnormality) or secondary (right ventricular dilatation) pulsatile liver and ascitis are a charecteristic feature of Tricuspid insufficiency Ref Davidson 23rd edition pg 445
