Balloon Valvuloplasty in Haldwani

Balloon Valvuloplasty in Haldwani

Balloon Valvuloplasty, also known as Balloon Mitral Valvotomy (BMV), is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat narrowed heart valves, especially the mitral valve. This condition, called valve stenosis, restricts blood flow and can lead to symptoms like breathlessness, fatigue, and reduced physical capacity.

Dr. Yogesh Nagendra, an experienced Interventional Cardiologist in Haldwani, performs Balloon Valvuloplasty using advanced techniques to safely widen the narrowed valve and restore normal blood flow. During the procedure, a thin catheter with a balloon at its tip is guided to the affected valve and gently inflated to open it.
