Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) #science #shorts #anatomy

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a procedure where a catheter is inserted into a blood vessel in the leg or chest, guided to the aortic valve, and used to place a new valve over the old one. This is typically used to treat aortic valve disease. The technique offers advantages such as avoiding the need to stop the heart or use a bypass machine, and it requires a smaller chest incision. TAVI may be more suitable for frail individuals who might struggle with traditional valve replacement surgery. Research indicates it can be as effective as surgery for high-risk individuals and may lead to quicker recovery. However, there’s limited evidence supporting its use for low-risk patients who could undergo surgery. Possible complications of TAVI are akin to those of traditional valve replacement, with a slightly higher risk of stroke post-procedure.Key words:
