DEVICE: EDWARDS DILATOR KIT (00690103192391)

A collection of nonimplantable, invasive devices intended to provide percutaneous vascular access to enable introduction of a catheter (not included) into the vascular system. It includes a non-steerable introducer sheath with an inner obturator/dilator, and typically an additional access device(s) [e.g., guidewire, introducer needle, syringe, additional dilators] which may include a haemostatic valve to control blood loss, usually to enable arterial access. This is a single-use device.

An implantable xenograft (e.g., bovine, porcine) intended to be used to repair/replace a stenosed and/or regurgitant aortic heart valve, or previously-implanted aortic heart valve prosthesis, and which is designed to be implanted with a catheter via transarterial access (e.g., femoral, subclavian, aortic) or transapical access while the heart is beating. It is comprised of the xenograft, processed to render the tissue non-viable, attached to an expandable metal framework, which is implanted with an included catheter, and when in situ, may be expanded with a balloon or self-expand. Typically devices associated with implantation (e.g., catheter, introducer) are included.
