Since the initial experience with the CoreValve (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota), there have been continuous iterations of this valve system in order to improve procedural success and reduce periprocedural complications. The Evolut Pro, Pro+, and FX are the latest generations of this transcatheter heart valve (THV).
This review paper aims to analyze the main characteristics and clinical evidence about the Evolut Pro THV and summarize the main iterations of the newer generation Evolut FX valve system.
The Evolut Pro system has been associated with good clinical outcomes and excellent valve hemodynamic performance including reduced rates of paravalvular leaks. Technical enhancements to improve valve positioning, orientation, and vascular access have been implemented in the newer generation Evolut FX system.
自最初使用 CoreValve(美敦力公司,明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市)以来,该瓣膜系统不断迭代更新,以提高手术成功率并减少围手术期并发症。Evolut Pro、Pro+ 和 FX 是该经导管心脏瓣膜(THV)的最新一代产品。
本文旨在分析 Evolut Pro THV 的主要特点和临床证据,并总结新一代 Evolut FX 瓣膜系统的主要迭代。
Evolut Pro 系统具有良好的临床结果和出色的瓣膜血流动力学性能,包括降低瓣周漏的发生率。在新一代 Evolut FX 系统中,采用了改进瓣膜定位、方向和血管入路的技术增强措施。
