This is an observational study that tracks patients who have undergone a minimally invasive procedure to replace a diseased aortic or mitral heart valve. Researchers want to understand how patients' physical abilities, symptoms, and quality of life improve after the procedure by following them over time and collecting information about their recovery and outcomes.
While minimally invasive valve replacement is becoming more common, doctors want to better understand the real-world benefits patients experience in their daily lives. This study will help identify trends and outcomes to improve how this treatment is used and monitored.

If you join this study, researchers will observe and collect information about your health and quality of life after your valve replacement procedure. You will be followed over time to track how you recover and how your symptoms and daily functioning improve. The study involves sharing your medical information and outcomes with the research team, but does not require you to take any new medication or undergo additional procedures beyond your scheduled valve replacement.
