Several companies manufacture mechanical heart valves. One prominent manufacturer is Abbott.
Abbott's Masters Series Mechanical Heart Valves are known for their reliability and performance. However, it's important to remember that multiple companies are involved in the production of these life-saving devices. Other manufacturers can include:
- Medtronic
- St. Jude Medical (now part of Abbott)
- Edwards Lifesciences
These companies are key players in the development, manufacturing, and distribution of mechanical heart valves used worldwide. The specific valve implanted depends on a variety of factors, including the patient's condition and the surgeon's preference.
