CryoValve SG Pulmonary Human Heart Valve Post Clearance Study

Completed
Conditions
Pulmonary Valve Stenosis
Aortic Valve Stenosis
Aortic Valve Insufficiency
Pulmonary Valve Insufficiency
Interventions
Procedure: Echocardiogram
Registration Number
NCT01092442
Lead Sponsor
CryoLife, Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to collect long-term follow-up data of the CryoValve SG Pulmonary Human Heart Valve.

Detailed Description

The CryoValve SG pulmonary human heart valve is recovered from deceased human donors, treated with the SynerGraft® process,which is designed to reduce the donor cells present on the graft. The valve is then cryopreserved for storage until use. Removing cells from the heart valve has been shown to reduce a component of the immune response after implant compared to a standard allograft valve. However, it is not known how this affects the long-term durability of the valve.
