Trate las infecciones por estreptococos oportunamente para prevenir la fiebre reumática, que puede causar estenosis aórtica. Esta afección en sí a menudo no se puede prevenir, pero sí algunas de sus complicaciones.
Siga las recomendaciones del médico para el tratamiento de afecciones que puedan causar valvulopatía. Asimismo, notifíquele al médico si hay antecedentes familiares de cardiopatías congénitas.
