From Which Medical Device
The Engager is delivered via a transapical catheter for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis in patients who are unsuitable for surgical valve replacement. The device has CE approval.
The valve is composed of a nitinol frame and bovine tissue leaflets. CE clearance follows the Engager European multi-centre pivotal trial, the results of which revealed high rates of procedural success, minimal paravalvular leak (PVL) and continuing clinical benefits for patients over time (reference our news article).
