Report this Question
During a teaching session, a client who is having a valuloplasty tomorrow
asks the nurse about the difference between a mechanical valve
replacement and a tissue valve. What answer from the nurse is correct?
You Selected:
• "A mechanical valve is less likely to generate blood clots, so
long-term anticoagulation therapy is not required."
Correct response:
• "A mechanical valve is thought to be more durable and so requires
replacement less often."
Explanation:
Mechanical valves are thought to be more durable than tissue valves and
so require replacement less often. Tissue valves are less likely to generate
blood clots and so long-term anticoagulation therapy is not required.
Homografts (human valves) are not always available and are very
expensive.
