Abstract

This chapter reviews clinical indications for valve replacement, with emphasis on the aortic, mitral, and tricuspid valves, as well as the physiology associated with valve replacements. Another section describes valve biomaterial and the effects of these materials on thrombogenicity, resistance or susceptibility to infection. Finally, an introduction to newer biomaterial and valve designs will further pique the reader, with the intent of spawning new approaches in the ongoing refinement of cardiac valves.
