My husband has been diago with diseased heart valves and underwent a cardiac catheterization. The reports says the following: ————– home SOB Echo recent indication shows at least moderate AR, so severe and dilated LV with good results in LV function ———– Coronary Angio: minor disease in half after LAD coronary angiography D1 Otherwise normal LV function Good. Tire gradient of about 65 mm Hg via AV severe aortic root shows severe RA RA The sound bad. How serious is this? The surgery has not yet been scheduled, but we were told we could wait 2-3 months. Should we be pushing for something before?
Just in this report, indicates the replacement of the aortic valve. Because the pumping function of the heart is good, does not need emergency surgery. That he and the family is prepared before the operation. Unless your condition worsens suddenly, as severe shortness of breath, fainting or chest pain, malaise, sweating, swelling of the legs worse, then talk to the doctor and they will decide if they need to pursue the venture.
