The Open Pivot Bileaflet Heart Valve, intended for the treatment of valvular heart disease, is the only clinical mechanical heart valve with no cavities or recesses in the blood flow path. According to patients, the valve is also very quiet, which can improve the quality of life for a heart valve patient. The mechanical valve is available in both aortic and mitral configurations. The company recently received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval to sell the valve in the United States.
