Structural Heart Disease Interventions

Overview:

Structural Heart Disease Interventions treat defects in the heart’s walls or valves — such as holes (ASD, VSD) or narrowed valves — using catheter-based (non-surgical) techniques. These treatments offer faster recovery and less risk compared to open-heart surgery.

Benefits:

No open-heart surgery needed
Short hospital stay
Quick recovery and minimal pain
Effective correction of heart defects

Process:

Imaging tests are done to identify the defect.
A catheter is inserted through a small cut in the groin.
The defect is closed or repaired using special devices.
The patient is monitored for a day or two before discharge.

FAQs:

Q1. Who needs this treatment?
Patients with valve issues or congenital heart defects like ASD, VSD, or PFO.

Q2. How safe is it compared to surgery?
It’s highly safe and less invasive, with a faster recovery time.

Q3. Will I need further procedures later?
Usually not — most patients do very well long-term.
