TAVR is a minimally invasive technique for heart valve replacements that prevents patients from needing a large incision across the chest. It is instead performed with a small groin incision, which improves recovery times and reduces blood loss. 

“In many ways it has simplified the treatment of complex heart issues, which previously required major, open-heart surgery. Through the use of this technology, we are delivering higher-quality, safer, more effective care for our patients,” Thomas Trobiano, DNP, executive director of cardiovascular and neuroscience services at Beebe, told the Gazette. 

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 18–20 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
