DOI: 10.1080/13696998.2022.2159662
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Prior economic analyses demonstrate that legacy tissue valves are associated with substantial financial savings over the long run after a surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). Bioprostheses with RESILIA tissue reduce calcification, the primary cause… read more here.
