Abstract
COVID-19 has put each and every one at test. Cardiological clinics are facing constrained resources, limiting timely treatment of patients as usual. Patients with valvular heart disease are one of the most time sensitive patient populations, with delayed therapy possible leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Identifying and allocating the available resources to the most vulnerable patients is crucial in providing optimal patient care with prioritization of essential surgical or percutaneous procedures for valvular heart disease. Implementing telemedicine approaches might help to minimize non-essential physician-to-patient contact to ensure safety, for both patients and lastly but not least the treating physicians.
