<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of death around the globe. According to statistics, every sixth person over 60 years of age has one or more heart problems. Unfortunately, not every country has access to high-tech diagnostic procedures. That is why many patients know about their diagnosis only when their disease is at an advanced stage.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Unlike many countries, clinics in Europe have the most modern diagnostic and therapeutic equipment. One of the most famous countries for the treatment of cardiovascular pathologies is Germany. Every year thousands of patients visit Germany in order to undergo the most modern treatment.</span></p>
<p><b>When aortic valve replacement is necessary</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The main causes of aortic valve failure are inflammatory damage to the aorta, stenosis, and calcinosis of the aortic valve cusps. At the initial stages, physicians can improve the patient’s condition with the help of medications. However, at advanced stages, the only effective treatment is aortic valve replacement.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The traditional surgical technique is an open-heart surgery that requires the usage of the heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass machine). This technique is outdated, as modern equipment allows performing the same intervention without opening the chest. One of the most up-to-date techniques is transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Symptoms of advanced aortic valve insufficiency, in which valve replacement is recommended:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shortness of breath during physical exertion</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Coughing and shortness of breath at night</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rapid heartbeat</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Chest pain</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Swelling of lower extremities</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you notice one or more of these symptoms, you need to visit your doctor as soon as possible. This will allow you to diagnose the pathology as early as possible.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Transcatheter treatment is called transcatheter aortic valve replacement procedure or </span><a href="https://bookinghealth.com/programs/treatment/cardiosurgery/aortic-valve-stenosis-transcatheter-aortic-valve-implantation"><span style="font-weight: 400;">transcatheter aortic valve implantation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Endovascular treatment of the aortic valve pathologies is used when open surgery is associated with high health risks. This surgery is indicated to patients with aortic defects who have severe comorbidities, i.e. chronic lung disease, liver pathology, endocrine pathology, oncology, etc.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">TAVR procedure is performed without large surgical incisions, through a femoral artery puncture. In addition, it is carried out under X-ray control, without general anesthesia. The main advantage of this technology is reducing side effects of the surgical intervention, i.e. less significant blood loss, milder pain syndrome. In addition, the use of endovascular technology reduces the duration of the rehabilitation period in valve replacement patients.</span></p>
<p><b>Treatment during a lockdown</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As we know, the lockdown has started in many countries in order to reduce the spread of COVID-19. This made it impossible for millions of patients with cardiovascular diseases to undergo therapy abroad. However, there is a way to receive treatment abroad.</span></p>
