Heart Valve Repair and Replacement

Surgical or minimally invasive treatment for damaged heart valves, either repairing the existing valve or replacing it with a mechanical or biological prosthesis. The approach is chosen based on the valve involved and your overall condition.

Heart Valve Repair and Replacement explained

Heart valve surgery repairs or replaces valves that no longer open or close properly, restoring efficient blood flow.

What it is

Damaged valves may be repaired using surgical techniques or replaced with a mechanical or tissue prosthesis. Some procedures can be done via minimally invasive approaches.

Is it right for me?

It's considered when valve disease causes symptoms or significant strain on the heart. A cardiac team reviews your echocardiogram and overall health.

How it's done

1
Echocardiography assesses valve function.
2
Under general anaesthesia, the heart is accessed via sternotomy or minimally invasive incision.
3
The valve is repaired or replaced.
4
You recover in cardiac intensive care initially.
