Implication

Supports anisotropic pericardial bioprosthesis design; leaves open durability and performance in clinical use.

Structured PICO

Population

Glutaraldehyde fixed bovine pericardial strips prepared from chemically modified pericardial samples

Intervention

Glutaraldehyde fixation (unconstrained)

Outcome

Anisotropic elasticity and strength (stiffness and strength in two orthogonal directions)surrogate

Glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine pericardium can be manufactured to resemble the natural anisotropy of human or porcine heart valve leaflets, supporting its use in bioprostheses.
