Treatment: Devices - Medtronic CoreValveâ„¢ Evolut Râ„¢ System

Treatment: Devices: Medtronic CoreValveâ„¢ Evolut Râ„¢ System
The Evolut R System is intended for relief of aortic stenosis in patients with symptomatic heart disease due to severe native calcific aortic stenosis who are judged by a heart team, to be at high or extreme risk for open heart surgery. The Evolut R TAV treats aortic stenosis by displacing and functionally replacing the dysfunctional native valve with a bioprosthetic valve delivered on a catheter while the heart is still beating, thus avoiding the risks of cardiopulmonary bypass. Its intended performance is to relieve aortic valve stenosis without inducing significant regurgitation, thereby restoring effective aortic valve function.
