| V-P | velopharyngeal |
| velopharyngeal | Pertaining to the soft palate (velum palatinum) and the posterior nasopharyngeal wall. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| velopharyngeal closure | The apposition of the palate to the upper posterior pharyngeal wall as in deglutition and in some speech sounds. (05 Mar 2000) |
| velopharyngeal insufficiency | Failure of the soft palate to reach the posterior pharyngeal wall. It may be caused by cleft palate surgery, palatal or pharyngeal abnormalities or injury, or neuromuscular dysfunction of the velopharyngeal sphincter. It causes hypernasality of speech. (12 Dec 1998) |
| velopharyngeal seal | Closure between the oral and nasopharyngeal cavities. (05 Mar 2000) |
| velopharyngeal sphincter | A constant band of the superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle which sweeps posteriorly from the anterolateral part of the superior surface of the palatine aponeurosis. It creates a visible ridge when the superior constrictor is contracted, meeting the elevated soft palate to seal off the pharyngeal isthmus during swallowing. Synonym: pharyngeal ridge, sphincter of the pharyngeal isthmus, velopharyngeal sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aortic incompetence | Defective closure of the aortic valve permitting regurgitation into the left ventricle during diastole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardiac incompetence | Inability of the ventricles to pump out the blood returning to the atria fast enough to prevent an abnormal rise in atrial pressure or to pump sufficient blood to maintain normal circulatory function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardiac valvular incompetence | Failure of a valve to perform its fundamental function: insurance of one-way flow; manifested by regurgitation of blood in the opposite direction when the valve is supposed to be closed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valvular incompetence | A leaky state of one or more of the cardiac valves, the valve not closing tightly and blood therefore regurgitating through it. Synonym: valvular incompetence, valvular insufficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| relative incompetence | Imperfect closure of a cardiac valve, in consequence of excessive dilation of the corresponding cavity of the heart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervix incompetence | Habitual abortion in which painless bloodless dilatation of the cervix in the second trimester of pregnancy is followed by rupture of membranes and expulsion of a foetus so immature that it usually dies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mitral incompetence | <cardiology> The back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium through a defective mitral bicuspid valve. The most common cause for mitral regurgitation is rheumatic fever. Other causes include: myocardial infarction, massive calcification of the mitral annulus (in the elderly), lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, infectious endocarditis and ankylosing spondylitis. (13 Nov 1997) |
| muscular incompetence | Imperfect closure of an anatomically normal cardiac valve, in consequence of defective action of its papillary muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary incompetence | Defective closure of the pulmonic valve permitting regurgitation into the right ventricle during diastole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pyloric incompetence | A patulous state or want of tone of the pylorus that allows the passage of food into the intestine before gastric digestion is completed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| velopharyngeal incompetence |
a disorder of the soft palate and pharynx (throat) in which the muscular portion in the soft palate and throat fail to close completely during normal speech.
