This project aims to develop a low-cost, non-electrical artificial heart valve that can be used in regions with limited healthcare resources. The valve will be designed to replace damaged or diseased heart valves, improving the quality of life for patients with heart conditions. The valve design will include materials such as polymeric materials for the valve body, metal alloys for stents or support structures while utilizing low cost manufacturing techniques while prioritizing patient safety.
