Aortic stenosis means aortic valve narrowness. The aortic valve is the most important one in all the heart valves. If the aortic valve narrows, the function of pumping blood out of the heart is limited. It will cause systemic organ blood supply insufficiency. Severe cases may have sudden syncope or sudden death. Aortic valve stenosis usually causes no obvious symptoms, but it has the potential risk of sudden syncope and death. Few drugs can treat aortic stenosis. Pay special attention to blood pressure lowering drugs. If you take too much of them, it may trigger sudden syncope and death. Surgery can be effective.
