Interventional Cardiologist and Director of Cardiac Services, specializing in complex coronary interventions, TAVI/TAVR, and minimally invasive structural heart procedures.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) has revolutionized the treatment of severe aortic stenosis, transitioning from a high-risk surgical alternative to a routine, minimally invasive option. Because early identification and long-term surveillance happen at the primary care level, general practitioners play a vital role in ensuring optimal patient outcomes. In this focused session, Dr. Tanmay Kulkarni delivers a practical, high-yield guide tailored for primary care physicians.

The discussion centers on spotting subtle clinical indicators of severe aortic stenosis, timing cardiology referrals before heart failure ensues, and confidently managing post-TAVI care. Key topics include navigating post-procedural antithrombotic regimens, implementing infective endocarditis prophylaxis, recognizing potential late complications like conduction disturbances, and structuring routine long-term follow-up in daily practice.
