Prosthetic Heart Valves: Visual Explanation for Students

  • Опубліковано 3 лип 2024
  • A simple explanation of prosthetic heart valves covering the different types of prosthetic heart valves, comparing bioprosthetic and metallic and going through the heart sounds with examples to understand the "click" in preparation for your exams. We also look at the TAVI procedure and the complications of prosthetic heart valves.
    CORRECTION Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery can be done through a right sided mini thoracotomy, not a left sided thoracotomy as the illustration in the video would suggest.
    Special thanks to www.thinklabs.com for allowing me to use with permission the heart sounds recorded on a Thinklabs Digital Stethoscope and available at:

    I recently had my aortic valve replaced with a mechanical OnX one after infective endo ruined mine and a vegetion started growing on it. It's obviously not fun living on warfarin for the rest of my life but id rather live with the clicking than go through that again. Love the video, watched it a few times before my surgery to make my mind up.

    This is great. I have had a St. Jude for a little over a year now. I had a dissected AAA that tore up my aortic valve (at 32 years old and in very good shape, I might add). I've had to search and search for basic information on mechanical valves. I've just been curious about this thing I hear clicking 24/7. I find it fascinating that we can do this!
    One thing to add, the thing feels like I have a diesel engine in my chest. The kick is unreal. I've gotten more used to it now, but at the beginning it was crazy.

      Omg the click after the surgery was AWFUL. They also had me hooked to something that delivers shocks (I think) to correct irregular heartbeat. So when people would talk loudly, my heartbeats would go up and then I'd get a jolt down there.
      I had a bioprosthetic and moved to a mechanical one. Are you active? I can't figure out if my weakness and issues are from the second MVR or vasculitis. I was pretty active after the first one.

    Just a few comments on your informative presentation. St Jude is a brand not a valve type. Bileaflet is the type of valve commonly today called mechanical with St Jude one of these albeit the first to be commercialised. Most modern mechanical valves are not metal they are pyrolytic carbon, which is a specially created materia,l almost as hard as diamond, to take the 40 million plus open and closing movements per year in humans. Modern bioprostheses or tissue valves are mainly made from bovine pericardium (the membranous sack surrounding a cows heart) specially treated and mounted on a frame to mimic the shape of our native valve first created by a surgeon, Marian Ionescu in Leeds UK in 1971. After almost 40 years working for prosthetic valve companies the changes in valve technology in that time have been profound resulting in the excellent outcomes today for patients.

      @thevalveman9636 3 місяці тому

      @@AR-777 Why would they stop Warfarin? If the patient is very young they get a biological valve till they get old enough for a mechanical valve. Biological valves do not need anticoagulant in many people but it depends on position and many other factors, so every person is different. If someone gets pregnant or have to have an operation they are usually managed very carefully in hospital with intravenous anticoagulants such as heparin to ensure correct levels are maintained. Large molecule chain anticoagulants such as Heparin do not cross the placental barrier, but again very carefully supervised in a hospital setting.

      Hi Bishal. Thanks for highlighting this, you are right! I have gone back to the literature and altered the description to highlight that minimally invasive mitral surgery can be done through a right sided mini thoracotomy rather than left sided as the picture suggests. I am not a cardio-thoracic surgeon, just someone trying to provide useful educational materials for medical students, and I am not immune to making mistakes. It is super useful to have people that spot mistakes highlight them so I can update the material. Thanks
