A Novel Polymer Film to Develop Heart Valve Prostheses
PolymersPolymer heart valves are a promising alternative to bioprostheses, the use of which is limited by the risks of calcific deterioration of devitalized preserved animal tissues. This is especially relevant in connection with the increasingly widespread use of transcatheter valves.

An Original Single-Body Synthetic Heart Valve: Feasibility Study And Prototype Realization [PDF]
The research for durable, non-thrombogenic heart valve prostheses able to overcome the limits of biological and mechanical ones, promoted the development of synthetic valves. Their success has been hampered by lack of durability, due to calcification and

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.We have developed a unique method for pre‐clinical heart valve prostheses evaluation of calcification propensity. Results from the test can directly be translated into improvements of prostheses design, materials, and anti‐calcification treatments, and therefore have a significant impact on heart valve prostheses quality and patient care in the future.

Three-Cusp View Orientation in TAVI: Evaluating LOA Versus Non-LOA Impact on Outcomes With Contemporary Valve Prostheses. [PDF]
Catheter Cardiovasc IntervABSTRACT Background Optimal projection views during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures are critical for procedural success and patient outcomes. Aims This study investigated the influence of 3‐cusp view orientation—line of alignment (LOA) versus non‐LOA—on procedural outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI with contemporary ...
