Heart valve disease is a widespread condition affecting millions globally. It occurs when one or more of the heart's valves malfunction, hindering proper blood flow. This can lead to a range of symptoms, including shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, and even heart failure. Traditionally, surgical intervention with open-heart surgery has been the primary treatment for severe heart valve disease. However, advancements in medical technology have introduced minimally invasive techniques offering significant advantages for patients.Understanding Heart Valves and Their FunctionsThe human heart has four chambers: two upper atria and two lower ventricles. These chambers are connected by valves that ensure blood flows in the correct direction. There are four main heart valves:Tricuspid valve: Located between the right atrium and ventricle, it allows blood to flow from the atrium to the ventricle.Pulmonary valve: Situated between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery, it directs blood from the ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation.
