summary

Recently, I always feel uncomfortable in my chest. Sometimes I feel palpitation. At night, I have difficulty breathing. I went to the hospital yesterday.

What should we pay attention to after aortic valve replacement

First, under normal circumstances, the patient can be discharged one week after the "valve replacement" operation. After returning home, patients generally need to rest for 3 to 6 months. Three months after operation is an important stage to recover the surgical trauma and stabilize the functions of various systems and organs. During this period, patients should have a full rest to avoid catching a cold.

Second: this kind of age certainly needs to change the metal valve, because the biological valve is still used for a short time, and the survival time of 51 year old patients is relatively long, so the metal valve can be used to avoid the need for reoperation.

Third: the operation has high requirements for the hospital and doctors, and the success rate of operation is very high. The cost of replacing domestic valve and imported valve is different, and anticoagulants are needed for life after operation. This kind of operation success probability is quite high, in the case of fully prepared for the operation, generally will not appear arterial bleeding, do this kind of operation cost is quite high.
