The RetroFlex II delivery system retains many of the features of the RetroFlex delivery system, and adds a tapered nose cone that facilitates the passage of the valve delivery catheter over the curve of the aortic arch and through the patient's native, diseased aortic heart valve. The new delivery system is designed to enhance ease-of-use and improve access during the transcatheter aortic valve replacement procedure.

Edwards SAPIEN transcatheter heart valve incorporates the same manufacturing processes used on premier Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Magna pericardial valves
