Zusammenfassung: | A method of implanting a prosthetic heart valve includes delivering the prosthetic heart valve to a native valve annulus while the prosthetic heart valve is crimped over a deflated balloon of a delivery device. The method may include advancing fluid through the delivery device and into the balloon to inflate the balloon and to expand the prosthetic heart valve into the native valve annulus. The method may include monitoring a pressure within the delivery device while advancing fluid through the delivery device. The method may also include displaying the monitored pressure on a display device in real time during monitoring the pressure. |
