Description:

Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Pericardial Bioprosthesis

by Edwards Lifesciences LLC.

The Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Pericardial Bioprosthesis is a leading solution in heart valve replacement technology, proudly developed by Edwards Lifesciences LLC. Designed with precision, this bioprosthesis aims to restore the normal function of the heart by providing a superior alternative to diseased heart valves.

The emphasis of the design is on the patient's overall wellness, promising them an improved quality of life. This device is an excellent option for patients who are ineligible for traditional heart valve surgery or those who aspire for a less invasive procedure.

The Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Pericardial Bioprosthesis is recognized for its durable and efficient performance, stemming from its utilization of unique and advanced design principles. Notably, it makes use of pericardial tissue; the layer around the heart that is recognized for its endurance and flexibility.

The use of the pericardial tissue coupled with the advanced manufacturing processes contributes to its exceptional hemodynamic performance, which generates stable and functional heart valve leaflets. This, as a result, can lead to a prolonged life expectancy and better hemodynamic stability for patients.

Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Pericardial Bioprosthesis stands as a testament to Edwards Lifesciences LLC.'s commitment to improving patient outcomes and pioneering medical technology.

Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Pericardial Bioprosthesis: Primary Medical Use

The Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Pericardial Bioprosthesis is a top-tier device in the realm of implantable medical technologies. It is primarily used in cardiac surgery as a heart valve replacement, demonstrating remarkable effectiveness and reliability in medical practice. The implantable device has a central role in treating disease or damage to the heart's valves. When a patient's native heart valve cannot effectively perform its function due to conditions like valve stenosis or regurgitation, the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Pericardial Bioprosthesis is utilized as a replacement to ensure the optimal flow of blood through the heart. Constructed from bovine pericardial tissue, this ro

Introduction to the CARPENTIER-EDWARDS PERIMOUNT PERICARDIAL BIOPROSTHESIS

The CARPENTIER-EDWARDS PERIMOUNT PERICARDIAL BIOPROSTHESIS is a highly sophisticated device in the field of cardiovascular medicine falling under the category of Implantable Medical Devices. Its primary role is to replace the heart valves that have been compromised due to disease.

How Does It Work

The CARPENTIER-EDWARDS PERIMOUNT PERICARDIAL BIOPROSTHESIS operates by substituting the natural damaged heart valve thereby assisting in effective blood flow through the heart. This device is made from pericardial tissue, which is the membrane enclosing the heart. Valve Replacement: This bio-prosthesis is surgically implanted into the patient's heart in a procedure called Valve Replacement. The malfunctioning heart valve is replaced with this device which assumes the natural valve's role of controlling blood flow direction through the heart's chambers. Material and Construct: The material used in the construction of the valve is chemically treated pericardial tissue, commonly from bovines. This tissue is highly flexible, durable, and is biocompatible, which reduces instances of body rejection post-surgery. Design and Function: The three-cusp design of this prosthetic valve mimics the natural leaflet structure of a healthy heart valve ensuring efficient blood flow. Its characteristic design reduces stress on the valve leaflets, resulting in smooth and efficient heart operation. Science of Coating: The valve is further layered with an anti-calcification treatment, which aids in its longevity. This inhibits the formation of calcium deposits on the valve, thus preventing the device's potential deterioration and preserving its functionality over an extended period. Overall, adopting the CARPENTIER-EDWARDS PERIMOUNT PERICARDIAL BIOPROSTHESIS for valve replacement surgery leverages advanced technology that gives the best possible solution in overcoming cardiovascular disorders related to valve malfunction.
