Description
About Hydra
Hydra is re-sheathable, re-positionable and retrievable self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve
ensuring patient safety and good results during deployment. It has advanced features like markers on
the frame for accurate guidance while deploying the frame. Hydra has a supra-annular design which
helps in larger aortic valve area and best-in-class hemodynamic performance post procedure.
Hydra has less metal in the outflow portion which in turn helps in flexibility and ease of delivery of the
frame which reduces the chance of trauma to the aortic root while delivering the valve to the aortic
annulus and the sealing skirt mitigates paravalvular leak. Non-flared inflow part of stent frame reduces
interference with the conduction system. Large open cells facilitate easy future coronary access
