Aortic stenosis makes up a major number of those who do develop heart disease. Left untreated, it can lead to heart failure, blood clots, and infection. One surgery that helps to fix aortic stenosis is trancatheter aortic valve replacement or TAVR for short. One company that has paved the way for TAVR procedures is Edwards Lifesciences and while their TAVR systems are successful, they can be difficult to flush during the preparation process.

With aortic stenosis making up a large number of heart disease cases in the United States, the need for streamlined, easy to prepare TAVR systems becomes imperative to both the patient and the technicians who assist in preparing the system for surgery.
