GURGAON, India - Aug. 6, 2018 - PRLog -- TAVR (Transcatheter aortic valve replacement) or TAVI (Transcatheter aortic valve replacement) is a very popular procedure in the field of cardiology. It is medical technique used for removing any kind of blockage in the aortic valve, which can otherwise lead to serious cardiovascular problems including increased risks of cardiac arrest and heart failure. The procedure has made it possible to treat the people who were not eligible for the open heart surgery. The Best Heart Hospital in Gurgaon has a team of cardiologists who also happen to be the most efficient and trusted tavr/tavi Experts in India. They have been responsible for various successful TAVR/TAVI procedures in India. The hospital has been widely appreciated and recognised for the use of machines and equipment based on latest technology, which not only help to give a high measure of accuracy but also increase the success rate of the surgery. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement involves the substitution of a damaged valve, by a new valve that has been artificially created by the help of tissues obtained from cows or pigs. The valve can last for around 5 years without any sign of degeneration. Hence a patient undergoing the procedure will be tension free for almost five years. After that he may need to repeat the procedure. Heart is the most crucial organ in our body responsible for the circulation of blood which carries oxygen and various other nutrients to different parts of the body. It functions 24 hours a day without taking any rest and helps to regulate various metabolic activities that are important for our survival. The normal and continuous functioning of the heart and its various parts is critical for the sustenance of life and even if a very small part of the heart is affected by some problem, the whole heart gets involved gradually and leads to grave medical problems and even death. More Info - http://www.heartvalvetherapy.com/tavr-tavi.html Aortic valve is the part of the heart that lies between the left ventricle and left atrium. It is responsible for the flow of blood from the left ventricle to the aorta. It also helps in preventing the backward flow of blood. The aortic valve is a hollow, elastic, tube like structure. However the valve might lose its elasticity due to factors like old age and plaque build-up. This condition is known a aortic stenosis and is marked by the excessive accumulation of impurities like cholesterol and calcium that are present in our blood. This blockage prevents the free flow of blood and may even lead to the backward flow of blood. Aortic stenosis has become very common these days owing mainly to the consumption of unhealthy foodand living a sedentary lifestyle. Old as well as middle aged people are at a very high risk of developing aortic stenosis. The problem is indicated by a number of symptoms like difficulty in breathing, excessive fatigue, irregularity in heartbeats, frequent chest pains that range from mild to chronic, anxiety, pain in the left arm or shoulder, fever etc. Inability to exercise and light headedness are also programs of aortic stenosis. One of the most common culprits that lead to aortic stenosis is obesity. Reports have shown that majority of patients suffering from aortic stenosis are overweight. This is because obese people tend to have very high levels of cholesterol in their body which is the chief component of plaque. Also people suffering from Page 1/2

Excessive stress and strain add to the problem and the patient might even have anxiety attacks. Aortic stenosis can be easily cured by surgical procedures which can either be traditional or latest. The traditional procedure involves open heart surgery in which the patient's chest is cut open and the surgeons directly operate on the heart. The latest techniques include minimally invasive surgery which is one of the most efficient methods of removing blockage in the aortic valve without any need of cutting open the chest. Instead a very small incision is made near the groin or on the chest and a catheter is introduces inside the patient's body via this incision. The new aortic valve, made from pig or cow tissues is placed inside this catheter. Instead of the incision, the surgeon can also make 2 to 4 small holes and carry out the procedure via these. The catheter is carefully moved towards the affected area and its movement is keenly observed with the help of live screening done by the insertion of very small camera inside the patients body. Once the catheter is in the desired spot, the balloon is inflated to place the artificial valve in the right Position. Once the work has been done the balloon is deflated and a catheter is carefully removed via the same hole or incision. Although trans catheter aortic valve replacement is a very new procedure but it is gaining momentum owing to its very high success rate. In case of an Open heart surgery a huge scar is left on the chest of the patient and in order to get rid of this scar the patient might need to undergo a plastic surgery. Since the procedure is minimally invasive, it does not leave any scar on the patient's body hence there is no need of plastic surgery. The wound heals on its own within no time.
