HR of 200 is not a good sign. He should be evaluated with Echocardiography and Angiography if required. Please share the echocardiogram

Heart rate above 200 is not normal. It has to be evaluated and treated accordingly.Regarding valve issue,it is not clear what is the pathology.Depending on the reports, next treatment will vary
