Introduction
As cardiovascular diseases continue to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, innovative treatments are emerging to address complex heart conditions. Among these, Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Interventions (TTVI) and Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) have revolutionized the management of tricuspid valve disorders. Dr. Gautam Naik, a highly esteemed Senior Consultant Interventional and Structural Cardiologist in Delhi, is at the forefront of this transformation, offering cutting-edge care to patients with tricuspid valve disease.
Understanding Tricuspid Valve Disorders
The tricuspid valve, located between the right atrium and right ventricle of the heart, plays a crucial role in regulating blood flow. When the valve malfunctions due to conditions such as tricuspid regurgitation or stenosis, it can lead to significant heart failure symptoms, including fatigue, swelling, and shortness of breath. Traditional treatment options, often limited to open-heart surgery, carry high risks, particularly in elderly or high-risk patients.
Advancements in TTVI and TTVR
Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Interventions (TTVI) encompass a range of minimally invasive procedures designed to repair or replace the tricuspid valve without the need for open-heart surgery. TTVI includes techniques like transcatheter tricuspid valve repair using devices such as the MitraClip and TTVR, where the malfunctioning valve is replaced via catheterization.
