The purpose of this study is to conduct a clinical investigation of the HeartHill PoliaValve Aortic Valve to collect evidence on the device's safety and performance.
The PoliaValve is indicated as a replacement for diseased, damaged, or malfunctioning native aortic heart valve via open heart surgery. The study is a single-arm, open label, non-randomized multi- center clinical trial. Up to 10 sites in the country of India will enroll up to 50 patients. These patients will follow the study schedule for 1 year after implantation.

Aortic Valve Replacement
Rate of Clinical Outcomes Events
The rate of adverse events will be compared to clinical outcomes for surgically implanted heart valves reported in the literature: a) thromboembolism, b) valve thrombosis, c) major paravalvular leak, d) major hemorrhage, e) endocarditis, f) all-caused death, g) valve related death, h) valve related reoperation, i) valve explant, j) hemorrhage, k) all-cause reoperation
Time frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
Effective Orifice Area (EOA)
Using doppler echocardiography to Measure Effective Orifice Area (EOA)
Time frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
Mean Pressure Gradient(MPG)
The mean pressure gradient (MPG) is a measure of the average pressure difference across a valve or a specific area in a fluid system, often measured by transthoracic echocardiogram.
Time frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
New York Heart Association(NYHA) Improvement Assessment
Clinically significant improvement (one grade) in the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification status at 365 days compared to baseline. a. Class I - No symptoms and no limitations in ordinary physical activity, e.g. shortness of breath when walking, climbing stairs etc. b. Class II - Mild symptoms (mild shortness of breath and/or angina) and slight limitation during ordinary activity. c. Class III - Marked limitation in activity due to symptoms, even during less-than-ordinary activity, e.g. walking short distances (20-100m). Comfortable only at rest. d. Class IV - Severe limitations. Experiences symptoms even while at rest. Mostly bedbound patients.
Time frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
