UNDERSTAND YOUR THERAPY OPTIONS FOR RESTORING PULMONARY VALVE FUNCTION
If you were born with congenital heart disease (CHD), you may have already had an operation affecting your pulmonary valve. Transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV) therapy could help delay your next one.
Melody™ TPV therapy is a non-surgical option to restore pulmonary valve function while postponing the need for open-heart surgery.
The tools on this page were developed to help you better understand CHD, treatment options, the Melody TPV procedure, and the importance of self-care.
