Freestyle^® Aortic Root Bioprosthesis

Why choose the Freestyle aortic root bioprosthesis?

The Freestyle^® valve is a stentless bioprosthesis that mimics human physiology to create physiologic flow resulting in superior patient outcomes.¹ Every aspect of the Freestyle bioprosthesis is meant to closely emulate the native aortic valve and offer comparable benefits. From the stentless full-root design to the Physiologic Fixation™ Process and AOA^® Treatment, the Freestyle valve offers superior hemodynamics and excellent durability.^1,2 The unique full root design of the Freestyle prosthesis offers multiple implant options to address valve and root pathologies. Similar to a natural valve, the Freestyle valve stentless design offers superior flow characteristics, implant versatility, and advances in tissue technology.
