Children born with congenital heart defects may require frequent surgeries that prevent them from living their lives to the fullest. PolyVascular provides the only non-surgical pulmonary valve and delivery system suitable for children as young as 2 years old. Our minimally invasive valve reduces the need for open heart surgery and enables kids to enjoy a healthy, normal lifestyle. Current animal tissue valves often cause endocarditis, while human tissue grafts may sensitize the child's immune system. We address these limitations with our biocompatible, durable, polymer-based valve. Our valve, provided with an-easy-to-use delivery system for clinicians, is easy to manufacture at any size.
