Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular (S.A.V) Bioprosthesis Model 2650
Manufactured by Edwards Lifesciences LLC., the Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular (S.A.V) Bioprosthesis Model 2650 is a vital medical device built to replicate the function of the heart valves. Designed with the aim to improve lives and hasten patient recovery, the device shows a forward-thinking design technology for the treatment of patients needing heart valve replacement.
The model is a bovine pericardial prosthetic heart valve, which is preserved in glutaraldehyde and mounted on a flexible, covered stent. With its advanced design, it provides increased valve area, reduced pressure gradient, and better hemodynamic performance, which have been demonstrated in clinical trials.
The device exhibits an excellent durability profile and is highly renowned for its low complication ratios along with its high survival rates. The exceptional design and material choice make this heart valve replacement a reliable solution, promising a significant improvement in the patient’s quality of life.
To support its prolonged efficacy, the Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular Bioprosthesis Model 2650 requires the least possible disturbance to the patient's native heart valve structure. Its advanced features have made it a preferred choice for cardiac surgeons around the globe, opting for a heart valve with high reliability and minimal complications.
The primary medical use for the Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular (S.A.V) Bioprosthesis Model 2650 is none other than the correction or replacement of deteriorated, damaged, or improperly functioning aortic valves within the heart. With a biomechanical structure that enables efficient blood flow and promotes patient longevity, this model forms an integral part of cardiac-related treatments, complementing a doctor's surgical expertise.
What is an Aortic Valve Replacement?
Aortic valve replacement (AVR) is a cardio surgical procedure that makes use of implants like the Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular (S.A.V) Bioprosthesis Model 2650. AVR is primarily indicated in patients who exhibit

Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular (S.A.V) Bioprosthesis Model 2650: Comprehensive Overview
The Carpentier-Edwards Supraannular (S.A.V.) Bioprosthesis model 2650 is a state-of-the-art heart implant that has revolutionized the treatment of heart valve diseases. The bioprosthetic valve offers an optimal hemodynamic performance due to its unique design, which provides extended valve area for any given size.
Composition and Design
The bioprosthesis is made from high-density bovine pericardium secured to a flexible stent. This is covered by a polyester sewing cuff enabling the placement of sutures for implantation. The component materials have undergone rigorous bioresilience testing to ensure durability over the patient's lifetime.
Mechanism of Action
Once implanted, blood flows through the heart valve, causing the leaflets of the bioprosthesis to open and close. In the open position, blood flows freely across the bioprosthesis, mimicking the function of a healthy, native heart valve. When the valve is in the closed position, the leaflets seal together, preventing the backflow of blood.
Implantation
Implantation of the Carpentier-Edwards S.A.V. Bioprosthesis model 2650 requires open heart surgery and the use of a heart-lung machine. Patients undergoing aortic valve replacement with this device are put on cardiopulmonary bypass while the defective heart valve is removed and replaced.
Benefits
The Carpentier-Edwards S.A.V. Bioprosthesis has been associated with improved hemodynamic performance, longevity, and a reduced risk of thromboembolic events. This is due to its Supra-Annular placement and low-profile design, which deliver excellent blood flow characteristics.
The aforementioned characteristics of the Carpentier-Edwards S.A.V. Bioprosthesis make it an optimal choice for treating heart valve diseases. It represents an advanced and trusted solution that provides physicians with the confidence and patients with the quality of life they deserve.
