Valve Replacement

Feel Confident With Every Beat

Your heart sets your pace for life, and a heart valve disease diagnosis certainly offsets your natural rhythm. But those anxious feelings don’t have to stay. At the AdventHealth Cardiovascular Institute, we offer options for minimally invasive heart valve replacement.

Performed by board-certified cardiovascular surgeons and interventional cardiologists, these lifesaving procedures make surgical heart valve disease treatment available to people who are high-risk for open-heart surgery. Let us help you heal from heart valve disease so you can return to the life you love with a fresh new start.

We’re here to help you find the right physician or a location that’s convenient for you.

Minimally Invasive Options With Powerful Potential

No medicines currently cures heart valve disease. While medication can help manage your symptoms and delay complications, sometimes for many years, it’s likely surgery will eventually be needed. When you’ve reached that point, we offer a full range of minimally invasive procedures as alternatives to open-heart surgery.

MitraClip®

Small, safe and effective, MitraClip® may be an option for you if you have a leaky heart valve (mitral regurgitation) and are not a candidate for traditional surgery.

Much less invasive than open-heart surgery, MitraClip® results in less scarring and shorter recovery times.

TAVR

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement, or TAVR, is a safe and effective option for people who can't undergo open-heart surgery. The TAVR procedure replaces a damaged or diseased aortic valve instead of removing it.
