Evolut R System for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)

The Evolut™ R valve was built on the proven design of our CoreValve™ platform and features a supra-annular, self-expanding nitinol frame with a low delivery profile.

Overview

Medtronic transcatheter aortic valve in the native anatomy

Explore the Evolut R System

The Evolut R transcatheter aortic heart valve can be recaptured and repositioned. Its self-expanding nitinol frame enhances the ability to conform and seal to the native annulus. The supra-annular leaflet position keeps the working portion of the valve above and unconstrained by the native annulus.

Product details

Designed to be durable

The Evolut R valve is built on a proven platform that continues to demonstrate exceptional outcomes. Design elements that support durable performance include:

  • Strong, pliable porcine pericardial tissue promotes durability and low-profile delivery.

  • Self-expanding nitinol frame conforms and adapts to the annulus, applying consistent outward radial force.

  • Supra-annular valve design maximizes the valve orifice and leaflet coaptation for single-digit gradients and large effective orifice areas (EOAs).1

TAVR risks may include, but are not limited to, death, stroke, damage to the arteries, bleeding, and need for permanent pacemaker.
