Research shows that severe aortic stenosis (calcification) has the worst rate of survival. It’s something people need to be aware of, catch early, and diagnosed appropriately. Aortic stenosis is a type of heart valve disease. Your doctor may classify it as mild, moderate, or severe. Which stage you have depends on how damaged your aortic valve is, and the amount of blood that’s still able to pass through it. Even so, not everyone will have the same symptoms or need the same treatments. The cross-section of a normal aortic valve is about the size of a nickel (3 to 4 cm2). In aortic stenosis, this cross-section becomes smaller. As aortic stenosis progresses, the left ventricle, the main pumping chamber of the heart, must compensate by increasing the pressure it must generate, to eject the same amount of blood through the smaller valve. When the aortic valve area decreases to 1 cm2 or less, the changes in the ventricle may no longer be adequate to overcome the outflow obstruction. This can lead to heart failure, syncope (loss of consciousness), and/or angina (chest pain). This condition is known to cause sudden death because of the blockage present in the aortic valve. There is no medical treatment to reverse aortic stenosis. In advanced stages, surgery is required to correct this problem. Survival in people with aortic stenosis depends on the type of symptoms they have. 1. In people with chest pain, the average survival rate is about five years. 2. If the person is passing out (syncope), the survival rate drops to three years. 3. The average survival rate of people with congestive heart failure is two years. While aortic stenosis is most common in older people, some children are born with it. It is estimated that the average survival rate in elderly people is about one year. Patients with severe aortic valve stenosis who do not undergo any treatment can result in sudden death in a span of two to three years. Surgery and medical treatment are seen to improve life expectancy, increasing it up to 10 to 15 years of time after surgery. The American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association advises that a patient receive treatment as soon as they are diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis and start to experience symptoms. At least 40% and perhaps up to 60% of patients with severe aortic stenosis do not receive valve replacement.
