    I am 73 years old and just had theTAVR valve replacement surgery 1 month ago. The hospital stay was overnight & I checked out the next day. There was a slight delay as a result of the incision bleed of the groin. The groin incision must clot completely before getting out of bed. Pain was not an issue for me. There was no immediate change in my energy. Actually, I felt about the same before & immediately after the surgery. After 1 month, I am still feeling about the same. I didn't have any severe symptoms before or after the surgery. I was fairly active before the surgery but am just now trying to become more active. Hoping for the best.

    What is better. I need mitral valve repair with OHS and I am scared to death of developing Pump Head from the heart lung machine. Mitral clip isn't available for people my age. Why are they still using simple wire to close sternotomy ? Why not use sternalock? Wire sounds medieval.

    I have liver cirrhosis. My doctors said TAVR needed due to compromised liver patients and dangers with the heart machine. I've got an Evolut valve now. Bicuspid valve repaired, lovin life.

    I inherited my late fathers bicuspid Aortic valve condition, it killed him in 83 aged just 44, I had a mechanical valve implant (St Judes mechanical, Pyrolytic Carbon valve) CABG & AVR, along with a triple bypass in July last year 2023. 4 weeks later I had a heart attack which nearly killed me and I was de fibbed back to life and underwent another emergency procedure to fix the problem which was caused by the first procedure. 11 months on today and I'm fitter and stronger than I was before. I'd like to thank all the NHS staff at Warrington cardiac care unit, Liverpool heart and chest unit and my heart surgeon Mr Muir.

    I had a bicuspid valve that was narrowing over time. I was pushed for surgery and regrettably was persuaded to get a bioprothetic via OHS. I have never recovered from the surgery and wish that I had pushed much harder for the TAVR. My MIL had a TAVR in 2017 and made a marvellous recovery. I am wallowing at about 60% of my pre-surgical capacity. I had a Edwards Inspiris model 600a. I just call it a donkey valve.

    A question for the doctors. Why is this procedure only for prohibitive risk patients? Why not for all patients? This procedure is probably a lot less risky than open heart surgery, so Why cant all patients benefit from reduced risk? is it because the mitral clip does not last long? Is it the case that placing in a younger patient makes no sense if the clip can only be expected to last 5 to 10 years? And not a big worry for older patients, because they are on their way out soon anyways?

    Stupid FDA only want to use it in frail patients who could not undergo traditional Open heart surgery and may not live long. Fit younger they use the expensive very traumatic OHS which takes a long time to recover from.

    Relatively good summary as to what to do & look out for after a TAVR. What I find works well is when patients aren’t just given a list, but an explanation as to each list item, as Amy the PA did in the beginning, and what the RN did regarding SOB after the procedure.

    High blood pressure is common after surgery. For those that had a birth defect the heart is functioning normal for the first time. Likely no doctor will confirm this but I've read studies high blood pressure

    Patient was 85. Interesting, is she still alive or died 30 days, 6 months, 1 year or ….after procedure? How did clinically patient look with MVA-1.2 cm2 vs severe MR and what was her MV gradient later? And finally, severely calcified PL and they still clipped it? Brave cardiologist or reckless?

    Basically there’s a cardiothoracic surgeon, a Dr who deals with everything the chest cavity, a Cardiac surgeon would be a Dr who deals primarily with the heart while an interventional cardiologists is primarily a medicine Dr who knows how to do these catheter based procedures not necessarily a full on surgeon. I hope that makes sense

    I have being asking myself the same question, the two questions I have to ask is how many TAVR's have you done and what brand of device do you use, the older or early one's leaked around the outside, is the device the latest design and tried and tested. that is what I have come up with. The first Cardio I seen was an Idiot and only offered me SAVR, I asked him what options do I have and received no reply.
