Hosted by KYW’s Rasa Kaye With Guest
KYW's Rasa Kaye and Muhammad Raza, MD, Medical Director of the Structural Heart Program and Division Director of Interventional Cardiology at Deborah Heart and Lung Center, continue their discussion about heart valve disease — a group of conditions that occur when one or more of the heart's valves do not open or close properly, disrupting the flow of blood through the heart. Left untreated, valve disease can place added strain on the heart and lead to symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, and heart failure.
In this episode, Dr. Raza explores how rapid advances in heart valve technology are expanding treatment options and improving patient outcomes. From smaller transcatheter valves to next-generation valve materials and longer-lasting devices, these innovations are helping patients recover faster and live healthier lives.
