Tricuspid wait time

Posted by fjcook1951 @fjcook1951, 3 days ago

Anyone who had a recent tricuspid repair/replacement, how long did you have to wait after being placed on the waitlist until procedure?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Heart & Blood Health Support Group.

Depends on the facility, the availability of an OR and cardiac surgeon, and on how urgent your need is based on your 'vitals' and immediate concerns. If truly urgent, perhaps a single day. If less urgent, one to two weeks.
