  • is that our heart?

  • @loopynora The FDA as of today's news 11/6/11 has just approved this new stent valve replacement in the good ole U. S. A. Great news for people that need this procedure done.? Many lives will be saved with this new method of invasive surgery.?

  • If you have a mechanical heart valve and the noise keeps you awake at night - but DON'T want to use drugs or narcotics to sleep - you can purchase an inexpensive and non-addictive psychoacoustic audio recording with the title "Heartbeat River" at cdbaby.com

  • how does it stay inplace without slipping or anything

  • @loopynora percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty

  • Incredible medical progress but why the Hell does a company that's at the forefront of medicine have a video that looks and sounds like it was made by a high school student?

  • @hyperlink89 please could you tell me what the name of this technique is and in what hospital they perform this.

  • That is so cool

  • 2:07 lol

  • what happens when the valve shits the bed lol?
