TAVR or TAVI stands for transcatheter aortic valve replacement. It is an exciting technology that allows physicians to fix a severely narrowed aortic valve (aortic stenosis) without opening up the patient's chest. What is aortic stenosis? Aortic stenosis is a condition that results from narrowing of the aortic valve of the heart.
Somewhat similar to a stent placed in an artery, the TAVR approach delivers a fully collapsible replacement valve to the valve site through a catheter. Once the new valve is expanded, it pushes the old valve leaflets out of the way and the tissue in the replacement valve takes over the job of regulating blood flow.
