Choosing Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital for Trans Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) Surgery gives patients access to experienced interventional cardiologists, advanced imaging technology, and comprehensive cardiac care. Established in 2012, the JCI hospital in Novena, Singapore has 313 beds and provides specialised cardiovascular services.

TAVR may be considered for patients with severe aortic stenosis, particularly when the narrowed valve significantly affects blood flow and causes symptoms such as breathlessness, chest discomfort, or reduced exercise tolerance. During the procedure, a replacement valve is introduced through a catheter and positioned inside the diseased aortic valve. Detailed imaging and cardiac evaluation before treatment help doctors determine valve size, access route, and procedural suitability.
