Talk:Mitral valve repair

Untitled

I put this page together from some copyright-free source material, but I'm not a doctor, and would like to have a professional eye look over the page and add to/edit it, if possible.

I added the "bow-tie" technik which is in clinical test at Columbia University known as EVEREST (Endovascular Valve Edge-to-Edge Repair Study). I'm not a cardiologist so any improvement is welcome.

to the editor

I think the page is a very nice start. I am new to wikipedia, but love to help you edit the page.

I knew I needed mitral valve repair surgery for about five years. Recent my cardiologist told me the time was now. I was aysmptomatic but probably would soon develop symptoms. This article in Wikipedia was very helpful to me. I found there were a few very good programs and I would just have to choose one. I decided on Mount Sinai and it was excellent. Thanks everyone for helping me make a such good decision. Russ: russ_hi@msn.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.234.112.11 (talk • contribs) 15:44, 1 April 2009

link to "alfieri" in uncorrect. Alfieri you are talking about is not the italian dramatist of the 18th century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marcowkpd (talk • contribs) 20:53, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

I think it is important to mention in the paragraph that talks about taking blood thinners for the rest of one's life to also mention that being on blood thinners such as warfarin requires a blood test (PT/INR) also for the rest of one's life once a month or more to keep the thinning of the blood at a therapeutic level for a person who has an artificial valve.--Berneyj (talk) 06:50, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
