Abstract

St. Jude Medical cardiac valve prosthesis is a mechanical artificial valve of completely central flow type and has more favorable hemodynamic features than any other artificial cardiac valves in conventional use, e. g., Starr-Edwards ball valves. It is durable, has minimal risk of causing hemolysis and thromboembolism and can therefore be anticipated to prove great clinical value.
