چکیده
Method Thirty consecutive patients undergoing aortic valve replacement using the St. Jude Medical Trifecta valve at a single UK centre over a 48-month period were included in this study. Patients undergoing concomitant cardiac procedures were included. All implanted valves were 21, 23, 25 and 27 mm in size. Assessment of haemodynamic function was carried out using transthoracic echocardiography preoperatively and at follow-up, as well as transoesophageal echocardiography intra-operatively.
