Heart disease is the leading cause of death around the world, and one condition that stands out among all heart diseases is aortic valve stenosis. While open-heart surgery was one of the only solutions to treat aortic valve stenosis.

However, the advancement of medical science has invented a safer and less invasive approach called TAVI. If you are suffering from heart Valve disease and looking for heart surgery in Thane, TAVI will offer a promising and modern solution.

What is TAVI?

TAVI, also called Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation, is an advanced and minimal approach to addressing the problem of aortic valve stenosis. Aortic valve stenosis is a condition in which the aortic valves in the heart narrow down and slow down the circulation of blood in the heart and the overall body. Over time this condition can develop issues such as breathlessness, chest pain, fatigue, and in the worst case heart failure leading to heart attack. 

Unlike traditional open-heart surgeries, TAVI does not require opening the chest and temporarily stopping the heart; instead, it involves inserting an alternative valve through a catheter. This gentle procedure will reduce the pain and trauma of the patient after going through an open heart surgery. TAVI is considered one of the best solutions for high-risk or elderly patients who might not tolerate the traditional procedure.

Working of TAVI

The TAVI procedure includes several careful coordinator steps:

  • Pre-procedure preparation: Before the procedure, the doctor will conduct various imaginary tests, including CT scans, to plan the whole surgery.
  • Point of catheter: Normally the catheter will be inserted in the body by making a small incision in the chest or the groin. This process will eliminate the need for large cuts in the body, which significantly reduces the recovery time.
  • Valve placement: Now the replacement valve will be inserted into the catheter and moved carefully towards the heart. Once it reached the perfect position, the catheter was opened either by expanding a balloon or by a self-expanding mechanism.
  • Closure: The final adjustments are completed, the catheter is removed, and the incision point will be closed.
