pubmed:abstractText
A novel trileaflet polymer valve, which is a composite design of a biostable and biocompatible polymer poly(styrene-block-isobutylene-block-styrene) (SIBS) with an embedded reinforcement polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabric, is being developed with the intention of providing a valve that has low thrombogenicity, high durability and favorable hemodynamic performance. The study aim was to investigate the biocompatibility and performance of this SIBS valve prototype under physiological loading conditions similar to humans, using a large-animal model.
