DurAVR™ restores near-normal flow dynamics

When compared to a healthy aortic valve, DurAVR™ THV showed no significant difference in flow.

Restoration of flow in the aorta: a novel therapeutic target in aortic valve intervention

In this Perspective article, the authors review the evidence for the link between aortic flow-related abnormalities and cardiovascular disease and how these changes in aortic flow patterns are emerging as a therapeutic target for aortic valve intervention in first-in-human studies.
