A novel polymeric aortic valve design showed promising hemodynamic performance and stress distribution in preclinical testing.
Promising animal results support further polymeric valve development; leaves open clinical translation and durability in humans.
The optimized valve demonstrates high hemodynamic performance with no sign of damaging stress concentration in the entire cardiac cycle.
