When Misako began struggling with fatigue, shortness of breath, and multiple hospitalizations, it severely impacted her life. "My quality of life was constantly deteriorating and some days I felt hopeless," said Misako. Misako became more optimistic about her future when she placed her trust in Dr. Loyalka and the skilled cardiovascular team at HCA Houston Healthcare Medical Center, who performed a revolutionary procedure in cardiac care with the successful completion of their first minimally invasive transcatheter procedure for tricuspid regurgitation. This is only the second time this procedure has been performed in Texas. This treatment offers new hope for patients suffering from severely leaky tricuspid valves, a condition that previously had limited treatment options besides medical therapy. “This new procedure was vastly different and required a much shorter hospital stay allowing me to begin my recovery at home and start to feel more like myself again," Misako shared.
