Early Surgery for Asymptomatic Aortic Stenosis Surgery with Dr. Joanna Chikwe

https://www.Heart-Valve-Surgery.com - Timing aortic stenosis surgery can be tricky for patients and their medical teams. First, the severity of the disease varies from mild to severe. Second, aortic stenosis progresses at different rates. Third, some patients are symptomatic (shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain) while other patients are asymptomatic (have no symptoms). Fourth, aortic stenosis can be fatal. As a result, patients and cardiologists are often confused about whether-or-not aortic stenosis surgery should be performed earlier than later. For example, Carrie recently asked, "I’m 75 years old. I was diagnosed with aortic stenosis five years ago. I’m in the 'waiting room' and starting to dial down my life. Not fun. My cardiologist still thinks that I don’t have symptoms. What is the latest research on timing aortic stenosis surgery for patients who are mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic?” To answer Carrie's question and learn more about early surgery for asymptomatic aortic stenosis, we contacted Dr. Joanna Chikwe, the Chair of Cardiac Surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. In this video, Dr. Chikwe references new research from the New England Journal of Medicine specific to outcomes for the early treatment of aortic stenosis which may use surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
