Heart-Valve-Surgery.Com and Medtronic Launch Novel "Aortic Stenosis Patient Activation Platform" to Empower Patients

DAIC

Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the aortic valve which prevents the aortic leaflets from opening and closing properly. As a result, the heart must work "over time" to pump blood throughout the body. Without treatment, up to 50% of patients will die 24 months after the onset of symptoms1.
