In May, HCA Florida JFK Hospital completed its 2,000th transcatheter aortic valve replacement, which treats severe aortic stenosis — a narrowing of the aortic valve opening, obstructing the blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body. This less invasive procedure allows patients to recover quickly with an average hospital stay of one to two days.
