In the last five decades multiple different models of prosthetic valves have been developed. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive source of information for the types and the echocardiographic evaluation of the prosthetic heart valves.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008944 Mitral Valve Insufficiency Backflow of blood from the LEFT VENTRICLE into the LEFT ATRIUM due to imperfect closure of the MITRAL VALVE. This can lead to mitral valve regurgitation. Mitral Incompetence,Mitral Regurgitation,Mitral Valve Incompetence,Mitral Insufficiency,Mitral Valve Regurgitation,Incompetence, Mitral,Incompetence, Mitral Valve,Insufficiency, Mitral,Insufficiency, Mitral Valve,Regurgitation, Mitral,Regurgitation, Mitral Valve,Valve Incompetence, Mitral,Valve Insufficiency, Mitral,Valve Regurgitation, Mitral
D011183 Postoperative Complications Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery. Complication, Postoperative,Complications, Postoperative,Postoperative Complication
D011474 Prosthesis Design The plan and delineation of prostheses in general or a specific prosthesis. Design, Prosthesis,Designs, Prosthesis,Prosthesis Designs
D011664 Pulmonary Valve A valve situated at the entrance to the pulmonary trunk from the right ventricle. Pulmonary Valves,Valve, Pulmonary,Valves, Pulmonary
D012086 Reoperation A repeat operation for the same condition in the same patient due to disease progression or recurrence, or as followup to failed previous surgery.

D006350 Heart Valve Prosthesis A device that substitutes for a heart valve. It may be composed of biological material (BIOPROSTHESIS) and/or synthetic material.

D001705 Bioprosthesis Prosthesis, usually heart valve, composed of biological material and whose durability depends upon the stability of the material after pretreatment, rather than regeneration by host cell ingrowth. Durability is achieved 1, mechanically by the interposition of a cloth, usually polytetrafluoroethylene, between the host and the graft, and 2, chemically by stabilization of the tissue by intermolecular linking, usually with glutaraldehyde, after removal of antigenic components, or the use of reconstituted and restructured biopolymers.
