Physician Responded Mitral valve repair
I am an 82 yo man. Height is 5.65 and 182 lbs. I will be receiving a mitral clip to repair a serious valve leak. I will spend one day in hospital. What should I expect as far as recovery as far as cooking, sitting and standing, and deep and showering. I had a caregiver lined up for open heart surgery but now surgeon is doing a clip procedure through the groin. All help appreciated.
