AorticPhlex ring is a next-generation heart valve device that helps repair the aortic valve instead of replacing it. Designed to treat patients with severe leakage of their heart valve, it supports natural valve function. It also reduces the need for long-term medication or repeat procedures thereby offering a safer, more cost-effective solution. The vision is to establish the AorticPhlex ring as the new standard of care for aortic valve repair, giving surgeons worldwide a practical, scalable tool to deliver better outcomes for patients with aortic regurgitation.
