We have assembled a nationally respected team of doctors and clinicians at Tyler Heart Institute. You can receive the most advanced care, right here in the comfort of your own community. After your procedure, we will provide you with the rehabilitation and lifestyle coaching you will need. Included below are quality measures for three different types of heart procedures. We consistently strive for the best quality and recovery for our patients.

*Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that repairs the valve without removing the old, damaged valve. Instead, it wedges a replacement valve into the aortic valve's place (Source: American Heart Association).
**National benchmark as the aggregated value for the measure/metric across all US patients is provided by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and American College of Cardiology (STS/ACC) TVT Registry
***This is a measure of combined outcomes. It is true if any of the following are indicated: Cardiac complications, neurologic complications, renal complications, bleeding, and vascular complications, or device complications.
Interventional Cardiology: PCI Outcomes*
January-December 2018
* Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a non-surgical procedure used to treat narrowing (stenosis) of the coronary arteries of the heart found in coronary artery disease.
**National benchmark as the aggregated value for the measure/metric across all US patients is provided by the American College of Cardiology Foundation CathPCI Registry
