Results for tag: "Mitral Valve Repair"

The Mitral Valve Repair market is a subset of the larger Surgical Procedures market. It involves the repair of the mitral valve, which is a heart valve that regulates the flow of blood between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart. Mitral valve repair is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to treat mitral valve regurgitation, a condition in which the valve does not close properly and allows blood to flow backward. This procedure can be used to reduce symptoms, improve quality of life, and reduce the risk of complications. Mitral valve repair is typically performed by a cardiothoracic surgeon, and the procedure can be done using either open-heart surgery or a minimally invasive approach. The type of procedure used will depend on the severity of the condition and the patient's overall health. Companies in the Mitral Valve Repair market include Edwards Lifesciences, Medtronic, Abbott, and Boston Scientific. Show Less Read more
