If you’re living with a leaky heart valve (mitral valve regurgitation) and dreading the thought of open-heart surgery, MitraClip offers a promising solution. This innovative procedure provides a less invasive alternative, using a thin tube to repair the valve without the need for major incisions. Dr. Prem Ratan Degawat, a renowned heart specialist, is highly skilled in performing MitraClip surgery in Jaipur.
What is MitraClip?
The MitraClip is a small device designed to address leakage in the mitral valve. It is utilized in a minimally invasive procedure known as transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER), where it is positioned on the mitral valve using a flexible catheter.
Benefits of MitraClip
MitraClip procedures provide notable advantages over traditional open-heart surgery for mitral valve disease due to the absence of a large chest incision. Patients undergoing MitraClip experience:
- Faster recovery times
- Shorter hospital stays
- Reduced pain
Furthermore, MitraClip offers immediate relief from symptoms. Many individuals notice improvements in shortness of breath, palpitations, and fatigue immediately after the procedure. This enhanced well-being facilitates a quicker return to regular activities.
