    Jm - do you have a link to that Cleveland Clinic Q&A or know more about any upcoming studies with the Tria valve at the Cleveland Clinic? Tried to search for it but could not find further info. Thanks!

    Edwards Resilia Inspiris Aortic Valve

    Thanks for the update, Daniel! Wishing you continued success, please keep us updated. Been trying to keep my eyes on the Inspiris as I've been in the "waiting room" for about a decade but believe my surgery time is near.
