From one heart to over 500,000 lives touched.

Together, we are building a comprehensive body of evidence to drive innovation and advance patient care.
EU Feasibility Study
Results at 5 years

The RESILIA tissue valve demonstrated a good safety profile and excellent hemodynamic performance over 5 years of follow-up.
Preclinical Study: Pannus Formation Animal Studies
Results of 2 animal studies
Two independent studies, a 5-month study and an 8-month study, using a juvenile sheep model of mitral valve replacement with bovine pericardial tissue.2
Five-month study results
pannus growth vs 2.61 ± 2.15 mm2
Eight-month study results
pannus growth vs 0.134 ± 0.066 mm2
RESILIA tissue valves were associated with reduced pannus formation vs control valves, demonstrating the potential to improve long-term outcomes for patients.
Preclinical Study: Juvenile Sheep Study
Results
Forty-five juvenile sheep were randomized to assess an advanced tissue preservation technology. Of these, 31 survived for treatment evaluation (17 RESILIA tissue, 14 control valves with XenoLogiX treatment). Echocardiography at 1 week showed normal valve function in both groups. At 8 months, cardiac output increased significantly to the same extent in both groups (vs baseline; P <.01). The mean transvalvular pressure gradient also increased, but significantly more in the control group compared with the test group (P=.03).3

A = PERIMOUNT Tissue Valve

B = RESILIA Tissue Valve
This novel tissue preservation technology, when applied to the PERIMOUNT mitral valve, significantly improved hemodynamic and anti-calcification properties vs the standard PERIMOUNT valve.
