An Innovative Approach in Cardiac Care: TAVR & TAVI Treatment in Kolkata

TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) and TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) , used synonymously, refer to non-surgical innovative cardiac intervention treatment for patients with severe symptomatic narrowing of aortic valve, without the need of general anesthesia, providing better results and hope. The symptoms of aortic valve stenosis, which may result from age-related degeneration or congenital defects, may include weariness, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, and even sudden loss of consciousness. It can progress to major consequences, such as heart failure and even death, if left untreated.

A pioneering minimally invasive approach, TAVI or TAVR procedure circumvents the need for traditional open-heart surgery. This reduces tissue trauma and minimizes incisions while facilitating faster recovery times, enhancing the overall well-being of patients. In this procedure, the doctor uses sophisticated imaging tools to insert a catheter carefully into a blood artery, commonly in the groin. After it is positioned precisely, a new valve made of bioprosthetic tissue or animal tissues is carefully inserted into the damaged valve.

Leading TAVR Doctor in Kolkata: Interventional Cardiologist, Dr. Majumder's Advanced Cardiac Care Approach

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation treatment in Kolkata, overseen by Dr. Majumder offers a meticulous process that prioritizes patient well-being and procedural precision. From preprocedure preparation to postprocedure care, every step of the procedural process is meticulously orchestrated and executed to ensure optimal outcomes for patients by our team of expert cardiac specialists.

Patient Evaluation and Preparation:

Under Dr Majumdar's guidance, before the procedure, patients undergo a comprehensive evaluation to assess their suitability for TAVI or TAVR, which includes a review of their medical history, a physical examination, and diagnostic tests such as echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, and CT imaging studies.. Once deemed eligible, patients receive detailed instructions regarding pre-procedural protocols and medication management by our expert team of cardiac care specialists.

Anesthesia and Access:

On the day of the TAVI/TAVR procedure, patients are administered only local anesthesia to ensure their comfort and safety throughout the intervention. The access site for catheter insertion, typically in the groin, is prepared, and a local anesthetic is administered to numb the area. A small incision is made, and the catheter is inserted into the blood vessel and guided to the site of the diseased aortic valve using imaging guidance.

Valve Deployment:

Once the catheter reaches the aortic valve, the replacement valve is positioned within the diseased valve using advanced imaging techniques. The new valve is then deployed and expanded, securing it in place and restoring proper blood flow through the heart. The medical team carefully assesses valve function and makes any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal performance

Post Treatment Care:

We extend our commitment to patient care beyond the operating room. After the procedure, patients are closely monitored in a recovery area or intensive care unit (ICU) to assess their vital signs, heart function, and any potential complications. Medications to prevent blood clots and bacterial infections are prescribed, and patients receive instructions regarding wound care and post-procedure rehabilitation. Regular follow-up appointments overseen by Dr Majumder and his team of skilled cardiac specialists, are scheduled to monitor recovery, minimizing complications and assess long-term outcomes. We aim to provide ongoing support and guidance, to ensure optimal recovery and well-being for our patients.

Benefits of TAVI Procedure: Improving Heart Health with Minimally Invasive Intervention

The benefits of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) extend far beyond symptom relief, offering a transformative approach to cardiac care. Here are some key advantages:

1. Relief from Symptoms

TAVI/TAVR alleviates symptoms such as fatigue, pain, shortness of breath, and discomfort while sleeping, restoring comfort and vitality to patients' lives.

2. Improved Quality of Life:

By addressing aortic valve dysfunction, TAVI/TAVR enhances overall quality of life, enabling patients to engage in daily activities with greater ease and enjoyment.

3. Reduced Risk of Heart Failure:

TAVI/TAVR reduces the risk of heart failure by restoring proper blood flow through the heart, thereby alleviating strain on the cardiovascular system and preventing further deterioration of heart function.

4. Avoidance of Complex Surgery:

For patients deemed ineligible for traditional open-heart surgery, TAVI/TAVR procedure offers a viable alternative.

5. Shorter Hospital Stays:

Compared to conventional open-heart surgery, TAVI/TAVR treatment typically requires shorter hospitalization, allowing patients to return to their normal routines and activities sooner.

6. Quicker Recovery Times:

The minimally invasive nature of TAVI/TAVR results in faster recovery times, enabling patients to resume their daily lives with minimal interruption.

7. Lower Risk of Complications:

TAVI/TAVR procedures are associated with a lower risk of complications, including strokes, making them particularly suitable for elderly patients and those with multiple comorbidities who may be at higher risk during traditional open-heart surgery.
