PERCEVAL S
MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOUR MEDIUM-HIGH RISK AVR PATIENTS
Perceval S is the new generation sutureless valve for curative open heart surgery.
It is designed to be highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of surgical approaches,
including both traditional and minimally invasive.
A Truly Sutureless Valve to Minimize Cross Clamp Time
With no need for sutures Perceval S simplifies the surgical technique leading to a consistent
reduction of cross clamp time 1,2,3. Perceval S requires no aggressive decalcification,
thus further reducing surgery time.
Which Patients Will Most Benefit from Perceval S?
Many different patients can take advantage of Perceval in AVR, most notably patients for whom cross clamp time reduction is critical and patients with particular aortic root requirements. Other patients that can benefit from Perceval are:
- Medium-High risk patients
- Patients undergoing concomitant procedures
- Patients undergoing re-do cases
- Patients with small annuli
Hemodynamic Performance and Clinical Experience
Over 20 years of experience in biological valves4 empowers the creation of a valve with outstanding
EOA and low MPG even for small annuli. Although Perceval S is a very innovative valve, its reliability has been proven by its valuable clinical experience: over 4 years of follow up in more than 900 patients.
