In Vitro Fluid Dynamic Characteristics of the Medtronic-Hall Pivoting Disc Heart Valve Prosthesis

The need for better low-profile mechanical valves led to the design and development of the Medtronic-Hall (formerly known as the Hall-Kaster valve) pivoting disc heart valve prosthesis in 1976. In vitro flow studies indicate that it has improved pressure drop characteristics compared to the Lillehei...
