Hello! Thank you for asking on HCM! Regarding your concern I would like to explain that "trivial" means non-important. The normal heart may have physiological insignificant valve regurgitation; this is not considered abnormal. So, nothing to worry about.
Hope to have been helpful to you. Greetings! Dr. Iliri
