Aortic Valve Replacements

Aortic Valve Replacements

Aortic Valve Replacement is a surgical procedure performed to replace a damaged or malfunctioning aortic valve in the heart. The aortic valve controls blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta, the body's main artery. When the valve becomes diseased or narrowed (aortic stenosis) or experiences regurgitation (leakage), it can impair proper blood circulation, leading to various cardiac issues. There are two primary types of aortic valve replacements: mechanical and biological. Mechanical valves are durable and long-lasting, made from artificial materials like titanium or carbon, but they require lifelong blood-thinning medication due to increased clotting risk. Biological valves, made from animal tissue or sometimes donated human tissue, do not require lifelong medication but may have a shorter lifespan and may need replacement in the future. The surgical procedure involves either an open-heart surgery or minimally invasive techniques, where the damaged valve is removed and replaced with the chosen prosthetic valve. Recovery time varies depending on the approach used, but patients typically undergo cardiac rehabilitation to regain strength and endurance post-surgery. Complications can include risks associated with surgery, blood clots, valve failure, or infection, necessitating regular follow-ups with healthcare providers for monitoring and care. Aortic valve replacements aim to improve heart function, alleviate symptoms, and enhance overall quality of life for individuals with aortic valve issues, restoring optimal blood flow and cardiac function.
