Valve Clinic

Overview

The Valve Clinic at the Sir H. N. Reliance Foundation Hospital is India’s leading centre for non-surgical valve replacement and repair. Our clinic boasts internationally trained expert doctors for adult and paediatric structural and valve interventions and cardiac imaging and surgery.

Our dedicated valve clinic has been designed to offer comprehensive, timely, and guideline-based management of all types of valvular heart diseases. Our multidisciplinary team comprises internationally trained specialists in adult and paediatric structural heart interventions and cardiac imaging and surgery.

Our clinic offers advanced diagnostic and therapeutic services, including 3D echocardiography, catheter-based interventions, and hybrid catheterisation (cath) lab support, and individualised care plans based on the latest international guidelines.

Our team is committed to providing holistic, high-quality care tailored to each patient’s needs.

Our Services
Technology & Infrastructure
Conditions We Treat

The valve clinic provides top-of-the-line treatments for valvular diseases. Our services include:

Non-surgical valve repair and replacement
- Transcatheter aortic valve replacement/implantation (TAVR/TAVI): A catheter is inserted into a blood vessel to reach the heart; a replacement valve is placed at the site of the diseased valve (aortic, pulmonary, or mitral valve).
- MitraClipTM: This device is placed onto the mitral valve via a catheter to stop it from leaking blood; this procedure is a useful option when open-heart surgery cannot be performed.
- Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI): A replacement valve is placed on the diseased/dysfunctional pulmonary valve via a catheter; this is also a useful option when open-heart surgery cannot be performed.
- Balloon mitral valvotomy (BMV): Insertion of a catheter with a balloon into the mitral valve through a blood vessel and inflation of the balloon; this widens the mitral valve, improving blood flow.
Minimal / open heart valve repairs and replacement: Advanced valve-preserving techniques, such as neo-aortic valve creation, valve-sparing aortic root remodelling, and mitral and tricuspid valve repair, are used to help repair/correct diseased valves. These techniques either require minimal incisions (for minimally invasive surgical procedures) or larger incisions (for open-heart surgeries).
Spreading community and patient awareness on valve diseases

Our multidisciplinary team leverages cardiac imaging through our advanced 3D echocardiogram equipment to evaluate the condition of your heart. Our hybrid catheterisation (cath) lab works in synergy with the best-in-class imaging services and the latest surgical techniques. The valve clinic also houses a state-of-the-art ICU for pre- and post-surgical patient care and close monitoring.

The valve clinic offers extensive support for patients with the following conditions:

Disorders of heart valves (aortic, mitral, tricuspid, and pulmonary valves): Valve thickening/stiffening, leakage of blood resulting from the valves not closing tightly, or valve malformation.
Myocardial infarction (heart attack): Damage to the heart muscle due to a decrease in/stoppage of blood flow.
Heart failure: Inability of the heart to pump enough blood to meet the body’s oxygen needs.
