Valvular heart disease (VHD) has been a significant health problem, particularly in developed countries, in relation to the aging population. Recent developments in the management of VHD require a more accurate assessment of disease severity to determine the need for transcatheter interventions or open heart surgery.

At AMS Cardiology, we understand that navigating heart health concerns can be overwhelming. If you’ve been diagnosed with aortic stenosis, you might have come across the term TAVR. Understanding Aortic Stenosis The aortic valve regulates blood flow from your heart’s main pumping chamber to the rest of your body.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasing in popularity for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Transfemoral arterial route is the most commonly used approach for TAVR, also known as TAVI or transcatheter aortic valve implantation. No calcifications in the artery causing vascular stenosis.

Known as an alternative to open heart surgery, minimally invasive surgery is preferred by many patients. It involves tiny incisions that allow a surgeon to access the heart between the rib bones. Unlike high-risk heart surgery, which exposes the entire heart, a CABG reduces the risk of infection and scarring.

A cost-effectiveness analysis demonstrates the positive economic value of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using Evolut TAVR compared to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for low-risk patients. At Medtronic, we continue to emphasize that valve design matters. mmHg TAVR; 11.8

Delivered through a vein in the leg, TriClip's TEER technology works by clipping together a portion of the leaflets – or flaps of tissue – to repair the tricuspid valve and help blood flow in the right direction without the need for open-heart surgery.

In as early as 1958, the first heart surgery -a closed mitral commissurotomy on a 30-year-old man with rheumatic mitral stenosis- was performed by Professor Ton That Tung, setting the stage for many decades of cardiac surgical endeavours to come.
