ECM STABILIZATION STRATEGIES FOR BIOPROSTHETIC HEART VALVES FOR IMPROVED DURABILITY

, 2008
Approximately 85,000 heart valve replacement surgeries are performed every year in United States and about 300,000 surgeries worldwide. It is estimated that half of them are mechanical valve replacements and the other half bioprosthetic valve ...

A systematic review of the cost-effectiveness of heart valve replacement with a mechanical versus biological prosthesis in patients with heart valvular disease

, 2020
Heart valve disease (HVD) affects 2.5 of the US population and one million individuals aged 65Â years and older in the UK. Given its burden, the aim of the present review was to assess the cost-effectiveness of heart valve replacement with mechanical ...

Electro spun bioresorbable trileaflet heart valve prosthesis for tissue engineering: In vitro functional assessment of a pulmonary cardiac valve design

, 2007
Currently implanted prosthetic heart valves, both mechanical or biological ones, are used to restore the proper blood hemodynamics when the native valves fail. However, these medical devices are not free from drawbacks, such as hemolysis or calcification,
