Comprehensive Care for Heart Valve Conditions
At Accord Hospital, the Valve Replacement programme provides specialised treatment for patients suffering from heart valve disorders. Our experienced cardiac surgeons, cardiologists, anaesthetists, and critical care specialists work together to diagnose and treat valve problems using modern surgical techniques and advanced medical technology.
Heart valves regulate the flow of blood through the heart. When these valves become damaged or do not function properly, they can affect the heart’s ability to pump blood efficiently. Valve replacement surgery is performed to restore normal blood flow and improve heart function.
Our team provides complete care, from diagnosis and treatment planning to surgery, recovery, and long-term follow-up. We are committed to delivering safe and reliable cardiac care for patients across Moshi, Pimpri Chinchwad, Pune, and nearby regions of Maharashtra.
Heart Valve Conditions We Treat
Heart valve disorders can develop due to ageing, infections, congenital conditions, or damage caused by other heart diseases. When a valve becomes narrowed or begins to leak, it can affect circulation and place additional strain on the heart.
Common heart valve conditions treated include:
- Aortic valve stenosis, where the valve becomes narrowed and restricts blood flow.
- Aortic valve regurgitation, where the valve leaks and allows blood to flow backwards.
- Mitral valve stenosis, which reduces blood flow through the heart.
- Mitral valve regurgitation, where the mitral valve does not close properly.
- Congenital valve abnormalities present from birth.
- Valve damage caused by infections such as endocarditis.
Our specialists carefully assess each patient to determine whether medication, valve repair, or valve replacement surgery is the most appropriate treatment.
When Valve Replacement is Required
Valve replacement surgery may be recommended when a heart valve becomes severely damaged and cannot function properly. If left untreated, serious valve disorders may lead to heart failure or other complications.
Common symptoms that may indicate a heart valve problem include chest discomfort, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, or swelling in the legs and ankles.
Early diagnosis and treatment help improve heart function and reduce the risk of complications.
Types of Valve Replacement Procedures
At Accord Hospital, cardiac surgeons perform valve replacement procedures using modern surgical techniques designed to restore normal heart function.
Mechanical Valve Replacement
Mechanical valves are made from durable materials designed to last for many years. These valves are often recommended for younger patients because of their long lifespan. Patients with mechanical valves may need long-term medication to prevent blood clots.
Biological Valve Replacement
Biological valves are made from animal tissue or donor tissue and function similarly to natural heart valves. These valves are commonly recommended for patients who may not be suitable for long-term blood-thinning medication.
Our cardiac specialists carefully discuss the advantages of each option and help patients choose the most appropriate valve replacement.
Advanced Cardiac Surgical Care
Valve replacement surgery is performed in modern operating theatres equipped with advanced cardiac monitoring systems. Our surgical team uses specialised techniques to ensure safety and precision during the procedure.
After surgery, patients are closely monitored in the cardiac intensive care unit (ICU) where experienced critical care specialists provide continuous support during the recovery phase.
Recovery and Post-Surgical Care
Recovery after valve replacement surgery involves careful monitoring and follow-up care. Our medical team guides patients throughout the recovery process and provides support to help restore strength and heart function.
Patients receive guidance regarding medication, lifestyle changes, cardiac rehabilitation, and follow-up consultations to ensure long-term heart health.
Regular check-ups help monitor the function of the replaced valve and ensure that the heart continues to work efficiently.
