An aortic valve replacement surgery involves removing a damaged valve and replacing it with a new one. The total recovery time is 2 to 3 months.
There are two types of valves used - Mechanical valve or Biologic (Tissue) Valve.
A liquid or light diet with low amounts of salt is recommended for 2-3 days post-surgery.
Take a sponge bath for the first 3-4 days.
The shower is allowed after 5 days.
Keep the incision dry when you shower by keeping your back turned to the shower spray.
Light cooking, tidying up, flower arranging, and clothes washing can all be started after 2 weeks of surgery.
Driving can be resumed after around 6 weeks.
Return to work after 6 to 8 weeks if the job mainly involves light work. Labour jobs can be resumed after 3 months.
