Severe aortic stenosis can cause chest pain, breathlessness, fainting, fatigue, and repeated hospitalizations—especially when surgery or TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is no longer possible.
But even when curative treatment is limited, care does not stop. Supportive and palliative care can still help manage symptoms, reduce discomfort, ease anxiety, and improve quality of life.
This video explains how clinicians support patients with advanced aortic stenosis using medications, symptom-focused care, and hospice when appropriate.
