A surgical team from Hamad Medical Corporation Heart Hospital in Qatar performed a transcatheter aortic valve replacement and complex percutaneous coronary intervention procedures.
Participants in the GULF-PCR conference, which was held in Dubai, watched this medical procedure by broadcasting it live at the conference, according to a statement issued today, Sunday, by Hamad Medical Corporation.
Dr. Muhammad Ahmed Al-Hajji, a consultant cardiologist, who led the interventional team, said, “The cardiac catheterization laboratory team is proud to be able to broadcast this medical procedure live to the participants in the Gulf PCR conference. The catheterization laboratory services at the Heart Hospital were provided in accordance with the highest international standards.” “This live broadcast provided us with a great opportunity to share our knowledge and practices to help educate our fellow healthcare professionals.”
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement involves replacing a valve that is narrow and not fully open. This procedure is minimally invasive, meaning that small incisions are made and does not require major open-heart surgery.
This procedure has become a routine part of patient care at the Heart Hospital, which in turn enhances patients’ treatment outcomes.
Dr. Nidal Asaad, CEO and Medical Director of the Heart Hospital, said, “The Gulf PCR conference is one of the largest interventional cardiology conferences in the Middle East. The live broadcast provided a great platform for our cardiac catheterization laboratory team to showcase their expertise and high quality of healthcare.” Which is provided to our patients daily at the Heart Hospital.
