Advanced TAVR Surgery at Livasa Amritsar - Innovative Valve Replacement

Welcome to Livasa Hospitals, where innovation meets compassionate cardiac care. In today's discussion, we are focusing on Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR), a groundbreaking procedure in heart surgery particularly beneficial for patients with severe aortic stenosis. Livasa Amritsar is proud to offer this advanced valve replacement technique, which is transforming cardiac surgery in Punjab.

Understanding Aortic Stenosis

Aortic stenosis is a condition characterized by the narrowing of the aortic valve opening, restricting blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body. This condition can lead to severe heart complications if left untreated. Common symptoms include shortness of breath, chest pain, fainting, and heart palpitations. Aortic stenosis primarily affects older adults and is commonly caused by calcification of the valve, congenital heart defects, or rheumatic fever.

Introduction to TAVR Surgery

TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure designed to replace the aortic valve without the need for open-heart surgery. It's particularly advantageous for high-risk patients who may not be suitable candidates for conventional surgical procedures. During TAVR, a new valve is inserted via a catheter, often through a small incision in the leg, offering a safer alternative with quicker recovery times.
