Apologies for fragmented post.

The clinical results from the recent trials do provide evidence of the pre - post clinical findings (impressive and significant improvements achieved with the DURAVR). The clinical results also show superiority over the competitors products...specifically, the mechanical readings - area of valve and pressure gradient.

The cited article (sample of 80 in two groups - mechanical v bioprosthetic valves) highlited a difference between the two......particularly with the exercise tollerence results......the patients recieving the mechanical valve achieved significant improvements in the 6 minute walk test, yet the bioprosthetic valve shows no improvement.

Perhaps this is another area of superiority our product has - the bioprosthetic valve space.
