With the clinical literature documenting the structural failure rate of standard balloon catheters for balloon aortic valvuloplasty and transcatheter aortic valve implantation hovering between 10 and 17%, there is definitely a need for a more durable balloon to prevent puncturing or bursting. Loma Vista Medical Inc. thinks its recently launched TRUE Dilatation balloon meets the unique requirements of TAVI. It is made of high-strength bulletproof fibers (a composite of seven different materials/layers) that are more effective than any one material alone and are ideal to handle high-structural loads.
