Love Your Heart: A Cleveland Clinic Podcast

Going Home the Same Day After a Heart Valve Replacement?

Cleveland Clinic Heart & Vascular Institute
In 2006, Cleveland Clinic performed its first transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Since then, the number of patients we treat has grown and how we care for this patient population has evolved. Dr. Samir Kapadia, Chairman of Cardiology, and Dr. Amar Krishnaswamy, Head of Interventional Cardiology, discuss how the care for patients having TAVR has changed and the benefit to going home the same day if appropriate.
