Research Notes on Embolism Following Aortic Valve Replacement
Aortic valve replacement is a type of heart surgery in which an aortic valve is replaced with a different valve that may either be a tissue or mechanical. Complications of aortic valve replacement include blood clot formation which predisposes a patient to embolism that may lead to a stroke or heart attack. Anticoagulant medications may be prescribed to some patients to prevent or delay the formation of blood clots.
