FAQs
TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure that replaces a narrowed aortic valve without the need for open-heart surgery. It is particularly beneficial for patients at high surgical risk.
Candidates for TAVR typically have severe aortic stenosis and are considered high-risk for traditional surgery. A thorough evaluation by a cardiologist is essential to determine suitability.
Minimally invasive procedures often result in shorter hospital stays, reduced recovery times, and decreased risk of complications compared to traditional open surgeries.
