Aortic valve bioprosthesis PERCEVAL™

bovine tissuenitinolsutureless

Truly Unique Sutureless Valve PercevalTM is a pericardial surgical heart valve with a sutureless and collapsible design that simplifies the surgical implantation Reducing operative trauma and post-operative complications Enabling faster Patient recovery Unique Valve design The superelastic stent: reduces the stress transferred to the leaflets 3 Carbofilm Coating: reduces inflammatory reaction favoring gentle a endothelialization 4 Double Sheet Design: an outer sheet acts as a cushion to minimize the stress transferred to the leaflets An ideal fit for MICS The atraumatic collapsing does not impair leaflet functionality5, preventing possible damage to the tissue. When collapsed, the valve allows the Surgeon better visibility of the annulus and the anatomical structures during implantation and deployment for greater confidence and faster and precise positioning at the implantation site.2 MICS = Minimal Invasive Cardiac Surgery Valve-in-Valve Perceval’s exclusive stent design allows even circumferential expansion to accommodate future transcatheter valves, making Perceval a unique foundation for Valve-in-Valve procedures.* MORE CHOICE: Perceval valves have a large internal diameter, providing more choice for future transcatheter valve selection. CLEAR LANDMARKS: The Perceval stent shape and visibility allow for identification of clear landmarks which may help avoid coronary ostia obstruction. CLEAR VISIBILITY: The nitinol stent provides clear visibility under fluoroscopy. EVEN CIRCUMFERENTIAL EXPANSION (AT ANNULUS LEVEL): The inflow ring can be evenly and circumferentially expanded to accommodate transcatheter aortic valve placement.
