[quote=Anonymous]My brother had a TAVR in 2016 when it was still considered experimental and so only used when it was for people too ill to have the standard one at the time. After 10 years, his first replacement valve had failed. I spent the night at the hospital the night before because I truly didn’t think he would survive the night.He was so breathless he could barely speak His procedure was at 7:00 AM. By 8:00 he was in recovery, off oxygen, his color was back to normal and he was talking easily. It felt like a miracle. This procedure is so much more widely used now. I hope your father does well too.[/quote]
