A member asked:
What problem does more blood dumping into the heart's atria lead to?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cardiac enlargement: Volume overload to the atria will lead to pressure overload and chamber enlargement -- and this will lead to cardiac arrhythmia and others more serious like stroke, heart failure and even cardiac arrest if left untreated.
