The J-Valve, an upgraded transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) system developed by JC Medical, has passed clinical tests and will be put into use across China, said Zhang Ji, J-Valve inventor and chairman of JC Medical, at a press conference.

Most prosthetic valves currently available are designed for calcified valves, or aortic stenosis, but the J-valve is a solution to both aortic stenosis and aortic insufficiency, said Guo Yingqiang, a cardiac surgeon at West China Hospital of Sichuan University.
The new product was used to fix the hearts of more than 100 patients during the clinical phase Austin Bryant Hat , Zhang said.
