Annuloplasty Rings and Band Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up Study

The Abbott SJM Rigid Saddle Ring is a rigid, polyester-velour-covered, titanium alloy mitral annuloplasty ring with a saddle shape intended to mimic the shape of a healthy mitral annulus during systole.

The Abbott SJM Séguin Ring is a semi-rigid, polyester-velour-covered, polyethylene mitral annuloplasty ring that varies in thickness and flexibility over its circumference, with the posterior portion of the ring having greater flexibility than the anterior portion.

The Abbott SJM Tailor Ring is a flexible, polyester-velour-covered, silicone annuloplasty ring indicated for use in surgical repair of the mitral or tricuspid valve. The Tailor Ring can be implanted as a full annuloplasty ring, or the surgeon can remove the ring's cut zone with a scalpel and use the partial Tailor Ring as a posterior annuloplasty band.

The Abbott SJM Tailor Band is a flexible, polyester-velour-covered, silicone band for posterior annuloplasty indicated for use in surgical repair of mitral or tricuspid valve. The Tailor Band is identical to the Tailor Ring with the cut zone removed, save that the polyester covering is sewn closed at the ends of the band during manufacturing.
