RESILIA tissue valve portfolio

RESILIA tissue* gives surgeons the freedom to offer a resilient tissue alternative that brings the quality-of-life benefits of tissue valves to patients.

*No clinical data are available that evaluate the long-term impact of RESILIA tissue in patients. Additional clinical data for up to 10 years of follow-up are being collected to monitor the long-term safety and performance of RESILIA tissue.

Spotlight on RESILIA tissue

Tissue with a difference

Integrity Preservation technology incorporates a stable-capping feature, which permanently blocks residual aldehyde groups that are known to bind with calcium.* *

A key challenge with pericardial tissue is structural valve deterioration (SVD), much of which is due to calcium buildup. RESILIA tissue is transformed to resist calcification differently. It offers enhanced anti-calcification technology that will potentially allow the valve to last longer than conventional bioprosthetic valves.*

Visit the RESILIA tissue pre-clinical and clinical data Inspiring Results page to learn about how the tissue is performing.
