To be considered for the Structural Heart Program, you must be referred by your primary care provider. Please talk with your provider to discuss referrals. For more info, please contact the Structural Heart Program Coordinator at (870) 508-3209.
The Baxter Health Structural Heart Program treats diseases pertaining to the heart's major structure including the walls, valves and chambers. This includes treatments such as Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) and Left Atrial Appendage Closure (Watchman™).
TAVR or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement is a minimally invasive heart procedure that replaces diseased aortic valves that are unable to open fully. The new, man-made valve is inserted into the old valve instead of surgically removing it which allows for quicker recovery time. This procedure will assist in restoring blood flow and reducing symptoms of aortic valve stenosis: fatigue, fainting or dizziness, chest pain and shortness of breath.
Contact your primary care provider if you are having the following symptoms:
