Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT
Magna Mitral Ease Heart Valve
Where MAGNA performance meets MITRAL EASE of implant.

The Magna Mitral Ease valve offers outstanding performance and durability. With the addition of significant design enhancements for better access, placement, and suturing, Magna Mitral Ease valve provides performance you can count on to ease the challenges of mitral valve replacement.


Enhanced Mitral Implantability
  • Color-coded valve holder confirms implant readiness
  • Asymmetric design to position the posterior strut away from LV wall
  • Supra-annular position to reduce the risk of LVOTO and ventricular injury
  • Ultra-low profile valve optimizes outflow hemodynamics and physiologic flow
Built on Proven Performance
  • Outperforming mitral pericardial design in challenging and standard age groups1
  • Study after study, consistently demonstrates long-term endurance of Edwards mitral pericardial design1-7
