What Are The Precautions To Be Taken For The Normal Heart Beat After An Aortic Valve Replacement?
i had aortic valve replacement and ascending aorta repair two weeks ago. i am feeling remarkably well and want to know what a safe, maximum, heart rate at this point of recovery is during excersize. 44 yo male in excellent physical shape. presently riding stationary bike for 30min @ 95 bpm and walking up to 1.5 mi. thanks patrick

Dear Patrick,
Heart rate until 100-105 will be ok. But you should pay attention on blood pressure as well. It will be better if you avoid high blood pressure during exercise for some time and do light exercises that don't cause significant hemodynamics changes.
Take care
Come back if you have any further questions
