What is TAVI/TAVR?
TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) or TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a minimally invasive procedure used to replace a narrowed aortic valve (aortic stenosis) without open-heart surgery. It is performed through a small incision in the groin or chest, where a catheter is used to place a new valve inside the diseased one.
Benefits of TAVI/TAVR
- No open-heart surgery – Performed through a catheter-based approach.
- Faster recovery –Shorter hospital stay and quicker return to daily activities
- Lower risk of complications –Reduced chances of infection, bleeding, or stroke.
- Improved heart function –Restores normal blood flow and reduces symptoms like breathlessness and fatigue.
Who Can Benefit from TAVI/TAVR?
- Patients with severe aortic stenosis experiencing chest pain, dizziness, or heart failure.
- Individuals at high risk for open-heart surgery due to age or other health conditions.
- Patients who have had previous heart surgery and require less invasive treatment.
