-Medical therapy for Aortic stenosis is basically non-existent
-Mechanical problem = mechanical treatment
-Afterload-reducing drugs are contraindicated
---BP = CO x resistance (by reducing resistance, BP will shoot down b/c CO can't increase to compensate)
-Mild to moderate asymptomatic aortic stenosis: ---Close follow up: [3 things]
---Warn re: endocarditis risk
---Treat associated atherosclerotic risk factors
Answer
history, exam, echocardiogram
