Mitral valve bioprosthesis Dokimos® Plus

bovine tissue

For the last 20 years, the Dokimos Plus cardiac bioprosthesis has been implanted in numerous cardiac surgery centers in Brazil and abroad. During this period Dokimos Plus has shown excellent performance results, both for its design and for its REDUCER® calcium mitigating treatment. Bioburden reduction preserves collagen and reduces antigenicity. Zero Pressure Fixation keeps the tissue structure more resilient and elastic. Lipid reduction with ethanol + surfactant. Cross-link optimization, reducing free aldehydes with pH control and heat treatment with polymerized solution. FEATURES AVAILABLE SIZES 25M; 27M; 29M; 31M; 33M EASY IMPLANT Allows implantation in smaller incisions or small ventricles; Low profile and ventricular projection of 8 to 10 mm; Wide suture ring. PERICARDIAL THICKNESS DETERMINED FOR EACH VALVE SIZE Special and exclusive selection of the pericardium in terms of thickness, fibers, structure and elasticity and strength; Leaflets designed exclusively for each size in order to optimize maximum flow and coaptation. PREMOLDED TISSUE-TO-TISSUE INTERFACE Allows only contacting biological tissue with the prosthesis cusps; Minimizes the possibility of abrasion of leaflets in the open position.
