Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), also called Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR), is a minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed or diseased aortic valve without open-heart surgery. A new prosthetic valve is guided into place through a catheter, usually via the femoral artery, and expanded inside the diseased valve to restore normal blood flow.
Meitra Hospital, Kozhikode, is home to a dedicated TAVI Centre - recognised as the largest structural heart programme of its kind in Kerala - with a multidisciplinary Heart Team of interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons performing TAVI, balloon aortic valvuloplasty, and other structural heart interventions.
