I love the amount of detail in your article! It's super well written and not too jargony, and I really liked how your outcomes section is very clear about the risks and expected course after having BAV done. Some minor nits I noted -


Medical Uses: (I really like how you separated this into separate population groups)

to improve blood flow through the aortic valve to improve symptoms - could be reworded to avoid to improve x2

The most common conditions that deem patients to->too unstable for AVR or TAVI

Guidelines suggest (using/performing?) BAV in pregnant patients with severe aortic stenosis evident by severe symptoms.

When BAV is indicated, it is suggested to attempt to wait till->until the third trimester to avoid harm


Technique:

Aortic valvuloplasty relies on placing a catheter with a balloon at the tip in the aortic valve, which (delete)then is then inflated to widen the narrowed valve Orangefoodie (talk) 02:28, 14 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
