Travelling with Aortic Valve Disease

Navigating Travel with Aortic Valve Disease: Aortic Stenosis and Aortic Regurgitation

Aortic valve diseases, particularly aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation, are medical conditions where the heart's aortic valve doesn't function optimally. Aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve) restricts the flow of blood from your heart to your aorta, while aortic regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) causes blood to flow in the wrong direction. Treatment options often range from medications to surgical interventions. When it comes to travelling, these conditions demand additional precautions, ensuring immediate access to medical help if needed. But fear not, Direct Travel Insurance concentrates on offering policies for those with pre-existing medical conditions. We are here to offer you a blanket of security, an assurance that in case of a medical emergency, financial support is on your side.
