Dr Paul Chiam's 91.3FM Good Morning Doctor- 18 May 2022

In this video, Dr Chiam shared what is PFO (Patent Foramen Ovale) and also some of the minimally invasive procedures to treat heart valve diseases. In simple terms, a PFO is a hole in the heart that did not close the way it should after birth, thus there is a small opening between the two upper chambers of the heart. Another heart valve disease we see often is Aortic stenosis, a condition where the aortic valve doesn't open fully, thus reducing the blood flow from your heart into the main artery to your body and to the rest of your body. A minimally invasive procedure called TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) may be suitable for this group of patients with aortic stenosis; as an alternative to open-heart surgery.
