Cardiac catheterization with rotablation and stent for one of his three (3) open bypasses.

Dad has been recovering from the cardiac catheterization.

01/13
We met with Dr. Penumetsa, the doctor who does TAVR in Evansville.

The final tests for TAVR are tomorrow (01/14). It includes labs and an in-depth CT scan. If all checks out, he will have the procedure on Thursday, 01/16. If it goes well, they expect him to be discharged the next day (Friday, 01/17).

I’ll post an update on the results of the assessment tomorrow (Tuesday, 01/14).
