Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Magna Mitral Ease valve

Built upon the unique and proven PERIMOUNT design, the Magna Mitral Ease valve gives you and your patients:

  • Ultra-low profile, with reduced ventricular projection by up to 40%
  • Exceptional long-term durability1-7
  • Ease of implant

The Magna Mitral Ease valve is built upon the proven, time-tested PERIMOUNT valve design, with unique design elements including:

  • Mathematically modeled, bioengineered design. Intended to optimize implantability, hemodynamics and long-term durability
  • Flexible cobalt-chromium alloy stent. Absorbs energy to reduce leaflet stress
  • Three independent bovine pericardial leaflets. Matched for thickness and elasticity to optimize stress distribution

‡ As compared to the Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Theon mitral valve.

Implantability

  • The Tricentrix holder system is intended to provide ease of implant
  • When fully deployed, the commissures should deflect towards the center of the valve, helping to guide sutures into their correct position and prevent the formation of suture loops

Tissue treatment

  • The PERIMOUNT Theon valve is treated with the Carpentier-Edwards ThermaFix process*, confronting both major calcium binding sites: residual glutaraldehydes and phospholipids

* No clinical data are available that evaluate the long-term impact of the Edwards Lifesciences tissue treatments in patients.

Important safety information

Brief summary: mitral bioprostheses

Indications: For use in patients whose mitral valvular disease warrants replacement of their natural or previously placed prosthetic valve and when the valve cannot be repaired.

Contraindications: Do not use if surgeon believes it would be contrary to the patient’s best interests.

Complications and side effects: Stenosis, regurgitation, endocarditis, hemolysis, thromboembolism, valve thrombosis, nonstructural dysfunction, structural valve deterioration, anemia, arrhythmia, hemorrhage, transient ischemic attack/ stroke, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, angina, ventricular perforation by stent posts, any of which could lead to reoperation, explantation, permanent disability and death.

Warnings: Alternative therapies should be considered in the presence of conditions affecting calcium metabolism or when calcium containing chronic drug therapies are used, including children, adolescents, young adults and patients on a high calcium diet or maintenance hemodialysis. Should be used with caution in the presence of severe systemic hypertension or when anticipated patient longevity is longer than the known longevity of the prosthesis.

Caution: Federal (United States) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. See instructions for use for full prescribing information, including indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions and adverse events.
