A Journey Through Time: The History of Heart Valve Treatment

From the first heart valve surgery in 1913 to today's advanced transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVR) - we've come a long way in saving lives.

- 1923: First successful open-heart valve surgery

- 1950s: Introduction of mechanical valves

- 1960s - 1970s: Rise of biological tissue valves

- 2002: First TAVR procedure - a game-changer for high-risk patients

Today, people are living longer, heathier lives thanks to innovations in heart valve care.

Fun Fact: Transcatheter heart valves which can put into patients without surgery actually are built in Singapore!
