The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and effectiveness of the Medtronic Avalus Ultra aortic valve bioprosthesis in patients with aortic valve disease.
Full description
A prospective, multi-center, single-arm, interventional, non-randomized, post-market study to characterize the safety and effectiveness of the Medtronic Avalus Ultra aortic valve bioprosthesis in patients with aortic valve disease. Approximately 150 subjects in the United States will be implanted and followed through one year post-procedure.
