"Must" reading for valve surgery patients

[John Cochran]

Under the forum "Reference Sources" I have placed a link to a site developed by the Cleveland Clinic Heart Center on the past, present and future of heart surgery, with a major section on heart valves (both mechanical and tissue, including SynerGraft). The site discusses innovations under development plus helps via photographs to understand what many of the valves look like. I believe it is "must" reading for anyone who is a heart patient or valve replacement candidate.

Regards,
John

Hi John,

The site you recommended is wonderful! You are right! IT IS A MUST READ! I found it most helpful because I found the link about the case studies for home testing. I down loaded it and will add that to my letter to my insursance for support for home testing. Thanks for sharing. It will be helpful to other VR.com members for Pre and Post surgery. Thanks again!
