What is aortic stenosis?
In aortic stenosis, the valve in a major blood artery branching off the heart called the aorta is narrowed. This prevents the valve from fully opening, hence limiting blood flow, making the heart work harder and eventually weakening the heart. The main cause is accumulation of calcium deposits in the valve, which increases with age.
Symptoms of aortic stenosis
Losing consciousness
History of heart murmur
Feeling breathless
