INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate durability of Mitroflow and patterns of use compared with other aortic valves through a systematic review of the literature. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: A total of 52 papers that included 33,630 patients met eligibility requirements that allowed summary statistical information to be determined regarding structural valve degeneration risk. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: Mitroflow has been disporportionately implanted in patients to be at higher risk for structural valve degeneration. CONCLUSIONS: Since Mitroflow valves were implanted more often in these high-risk patients, it was impossible to distinguish the effects of valve size or gender from valve type on structural valve degeneration risk.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate durability of Mitroflow and patterns of use compared with other aortic valves through a systematic review of the literature. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: A total of 52 papers that included 33,630 patients met eligibility requirements that allowed summary statistical information to be determined regarding structural valve degeneration risk. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: Mitroflow has been disporportionately implanted in patients to be at higher risk for structural valve degeneration. CONCLUSIONS: Since Mitroflow valves were implanted more often in these high-risk patients, it was impossible to distinguish the effects of valve size or gender from valve type on structural valve degeneration risk.
