Three Stages of Aortic Stenosis: Mild, Moderate and Severe | Dr. Suraj Narasimhan A

hello everyone I am Dr surj narasimhan consult Interventional cardiologist and structural interal specialist working in narana health Bangalore so basically iotic stenosis we can divide them into three stages one is a mild iotic stenosis the second stage is a moderate iotic stenosis the third stage is a severe iotic stenosis we do this grading of mild moderate and severe based upon on echocardiographic findings this mild and moderate iotic stenosis are not dangerous they can be managed medically but then they should be regularly followed up to check whether this mild and moderate stenosis becomes severe in future the treatment option which is more uh important is actually for the severe iotic stenosis patients so severe iotic stenosis is a mechanical problem the Val is not not able to open and close properly so this mechanical problem cannot be treated by medicines alone the medications which we give is just for the symptomatic relief and it is a temporary measure the permanent treatment for a patient with iotic stenosis is actually to replace the iotic Val so to conclude mild and moderate iotic stenosis is just only monitor the patient and then check whether they go in for severe iotic stenosis once they become a severe iotic stenosis we can wait till the time the patient become symptomatic once the patient become symptomatic medications are only temporary measures and this valve has to be replaced so replacement of the valve is the only available option and a permanent cure for patients with severe symptomatic iotic stenosis [Music]
