- Description
- A sole-source contract in the amount of $260,000.00 was awarded to Edwards Lifesciences, One Edwards Way, Irvine, CA 92614 on August 12, 2013 for SAPIEN transcatheter heart valve systems. The SAPIEN valve is the first transcatheter device cleared for commercial use in the United States that allows for aortic valve replacement while the heart continues to beat. It eliminates the need for traditional open-heart surgery. The properties built into SAPIEN systems allows for safer procedures for our Veterans. Other manufacturers products will not be used until their technology improves or the Medical Service opts to use less specialized systems.
