SAVI-TAVR

SAVI-TAVR (Sutureless Aortic Valve Implantation - Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a minimally invasive procedure to replace a blocked or narrowed aortic valve in the heart. Instead of open-heart surgery, a new valve is delivered via a catheter through a small blood vessel, usually in the groin. SAVI-TAVR features a special valve design that anchors securely without needing sutures, often simplifying the procedure and reducing procedure time. This approach is especially beneficial for patients at higher surgical risk, offering a safe and effective way to improve blood flow and reduce heart symptoms.
