Effective treatment of aortic stenosis

Aortic valve stenosis should be based on the patient’s specific situation to develop effective treatment. Clinically, if patients with aortic valve stenosis do not have symptoms such as dyspnea, angina, or syncope, no treatment is needed, and regular follow-up in internal medicine is sufficient. Once symptoms appear, surgery is needed as soon as possible. 1. Internal medicine treatment: The main purpose of internal medicine treatment for aortic stenosis is to prevent infective endocarditis. Asymptomatic patients do not need treatment. Patients with mild stenosis should be reviewed every 2 years without affecting physical activity; patients with moderate and severe stenosis need to be reviewed every 6 to 12 months and should avoid strenuous exercise and pay attention to the prevention of heart failure episodes. In addition, patients with heart failure, stasis and edema can use diuretics and other drugs, such as furosemide tablets and torasemide tablets, according to the patients’ physical condition before the surgical treatment in order to reduce pulmonary congestion. 2. Surgery: Surgery should be considered for all patients with clinical symptoms of aortic stenosis. Commonly used surgical methods include percutaneous aortic valve balloon angioplasty, prosthetic valve replacement, percutaneous aortic valve replacement, direct visualization of the aortic valve detachment, etc. The specific surgical method should be determined by the doctor according to the patient’s specific condition. Patients with aortic valve stenosis are advised to choose the appropriate treatment method under the guidance of their doctors according to their individual conditions.
