Aortic Valve Replacement

Aortic Valve Replacement

Aortic valve happens to be one of the four valves which regulate the blood flow in heart. Aortic valve replacement or repairs are surgical interventions which correct the anomaly related with the valve. Aortic valve due to many reasons may stop working properly or may interfere with normal blood flow in the heart.

A bad or damaged aortic valve can severely impact the flow of blood to the heart and it leads to excessive strain on the heart. Heart has to overwork for managing the regular supply of blood to the body. This process leads to a severe impact on the heart muscle and impacts the overall health of the heart. If it’s left untreated for long it may damage the heart permanently and can be a cause of death as well.

Aortic valve repair or aortic valve replacement can treat aortic valve disease and help restore normal blood flow, reduce symptoms, prolong life and help preserve the function of your heart muscle.
