Summary
| Description | Dr. Andrew Morrow, Dr. Nina Braunwald and other physicans and researchers are featured in this film about the history of the prosthetic heart valve, complications encountered by inventors, and key leaps forward in the creation of an artificial valve. Dr. Charles Hufnagel's early invention of a plastic ball valve is described. A Teflon prosthesis developed in the 1950s is shown.The first complete replacement of the mitral valve was performed in 1960 at the National Heart Institute by Morrow and Braunwald, using a device made of polyurethane. Criteria for an optimal prosthetic valve are presented, and the Starr-Edwards valve is described. The latest work of NHLBI in this area is described. Credits: Lawrence L. Michaelis, Charles L.
