Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Magna Mitral Ease valve

Built upon the unique and proven PERIMOUNT valve design, the Magna Mitral Ease valve gives you and your patients:

  • Ultra-low profile, with reduced ventricular projection by up to 40%
  • Exceptional long-term durability1-8
  • Ease of implant

The Magna Mitral Ease valve is built upon the proven, time-tested PERIMOUNT valve design, with unique design elements including:

  • Mathematically modeled, bioengineered design. Intended to optimize implantability, hemodynamics and long-term durability
  • Flexible cobalt-chromium alloy stent. Absorbs energy to reduce leaflet stress
  • Three independent bovine pericardial leaflets. Matched for thickness and elasticity to optimize stress distribution

Important safety information

Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Mitral Bioprostheses

Indications: For use in patients whose mitral valvular disease warrants replacement of their natural or previously placed prosthetic mitral valve. 

Contraindications: Do not use if surgeon believes such would be contrary to the patient’s best interests. 

Complications and Side Effects: Stenosis, regurgitation, endocarditis, hemolysis, thromboembolism, valve thrombosis, nonstructural dysfunction, structural valve deterioration, anemia, arrhythmia, hemorrhage, transient ischemic attack/ stroke, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, angina, ventricular perforation by stent posts any of which could lead to reoperation, explantation, permanent disability, and death. 

Warnings: Alternative therapies should be considered in the presence of conditions affecting calcium metabolism or when calcium containing chronic drug therapies are used, including children, adolescents, young adults and patients on a high calcium diet or maintenance hemodialysis. Should be used with caution in the presence of severe systemic hypertension or when anticipated patient longevity is longer than the known longevity of the prosthesis.

CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. See instructions for use for full prescribing information.
