35644 - Prosthesis, internal, annuloplasty, ring
Used in tricuspid valve repairs, the ring has a waveform contour with selective flexibility of the different segments to adapt to the complex motion of the annulus. The device maintains support of the tricuspid annulus to prevent excessive dilation while adapting to the dynamic motion of the tricuspid annulus in the direction of flow during the cardiac cycle.. This reduces the stress on the anatomical structures and therefore minimizes the risk of arrhythmia and ring dehiscence. The Carpentier-Edwards Physio Tricuspid annuloplasty ring, model 6200, is intended for use in patients with tricuspid insufficiency, to correct annular dilatation, increase leaflet coaptation, reinforce annular suture lines, and prevent further dilatation of the annulus.
