Mechanical Aortic Valve
Hi Folks,
Just had my bicuspid aortic valve replaced with a carbon fibre mechanical Aortic Valve and use Warfarin to regulate INR with self testing prior to flight. All ok with the UK CAA who have updated their Aortic Valve Replacement protocols on their excellent web site. Now a six month wait for new medical !
Warfarin is now allowed, mechanical valves are allowed with OML multi crew limitation. Hope that this helps to update the thread for other interested crew.
Good luck out there.
