The institute has set benchmarks in cardiac care with path-breaking work over the last 25 plus years. The hospital has the most advanced technology and has seen the best outcomes even in the most complex cardiac cases; be it cardiac surgery, Interventional Cardiology, Pediatric Cardiology, Pediatric Cardiac Surgery or Non-invasive Cardiology
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or Transcatheter aortic valve Replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive heart procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve that fails to open properly (aortic valve stenosis). The procedure replaces/implants the aortic valve with a catheter.
Between the left lower heart chamber (left ventricle) and the body's main artery is the aortic valve (aorta). Blood flow from the heart to the body is reduced if the valve does not open properly. TAVI can help persons with severe aortic valve stenosis alleviate their symptoms and enhance their chances of survival.
The TAVI procedure is performed using one of two approaches, allowing the cardiologist or surgeon to choose which one provides the best and safest way to access the valve:
TAVI may be an option for people who are at intermediate or high risk of complications from surgical aortic valve replacement (open-heart surgery). The decision to treat aortic stenosis with TAVI is made after you consult with a team of heart and heart surgery specialists, who work together to determine the best treatment option for you. TAVR patients often spend less time in the hospital than those who get surgical aortic valve replacement.
If you have any of the following conditions, your doctor may consider TAVR:
The patient receives sedation or general anesthesia during the TAVI procedure. The surgeon may access your heart through a blood vessel in your leg or through a tiny incision in your chest.
A hollow tube (catheter) is inserted through the access point. The surgeon uses advanced imaging techniques to guide the catheter through your blood vessels, to your heart and into your aortic valve.
Once the new valve is positioned, a balloon on the catheter's tip is inflated to expand the replacement valve into the appropriate position. When the surgeon is certain the valve is securely in place, the catheter is removed.
You will spend one or two days in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) after TAVI and around 4-5 days in the hospital room before you are discharged from the hospital. Your doctor may prescribe blood thinners and antibiotics to you, which should be taken without fail.
Cardiac Rehabilitation may be scheduled while you are in the hospital. Many people begin feeling better immediately after their procedure, however it may take weeks before feeling fully recovered.
TAVI (transcatheter aortic valve implantation) may enhance your overall health and quality of life by relieving the signs and symptoms of aortic valve stenosis. TAVI can also help people live longer.
It is critical to maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle as you recover and to help prevent further heart problems.
Following TAVR:
We at IndiCure completely understand your concerns and it is always our endeavor to provide the best outcome for every patient. Following is the list of questions you must ask before you embark on your journey for TAVI Procedure in India.
Prepare to answer questions about your:
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an abbreviation for transcatheter aortic valve implantation, while TAVR is an abbreviation for transcatheter aortic valve replacement. The process and tactics are identical. When discussing your treatment options, your doctor may use the terms interchangeably.
The tissue valves used in surgical aortic valve replacement have a lifespan of 10 to 20 years, according to medical literature.
Any cardiac procedure has risks involved and sometimes are life threatening risks as well. Survival rate is thus a critical measure. At our panel of best cardiac hospitals in India TAVR survival rate is more than 98%.
The TAVR operation takes three to four hours to complete. It takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes to implant a heart valve. The remaining time is spent inserting lines, ensuring you're asleep, checking your breathing, and removing lines once the process is over.
Medical literature shows that on an average, a 42-year-old patient who has an aortic valve replacement (AVR) with a tissue valve can anticipate to live till he is 58 years.
Patients who cannot tolerate medications that thin the blood or prevent blood clots, or have an active infection in the heart or elsewhere are not candidates for TAVR surgery.
You may expect to spend around 5-6 days in the hospital, with at least 1 to 2 days in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Depending on how healthy you were before the operation, recovery from valve surgery can take some time.
No, the heart is not stopped during TAVR surgery. During the surgery, your heart will continue to beat. This is not the same as open heart surgery, which involves your heart being stopped and you being hooked up to a heart and lung blood machine.
The average cost of TAVR in the USA ranges from $80,000 to $120,000, TAVR surgery cost in India is around $42,000.
