Investigator expects big things from Harmony, but it's not a one-size-fits-all kind of valve

Nov. 7, 2016
By Mark McCarty

According to cardiologist Lee Benson, a professor of pediatrics at the University of Toronto, Harmony should prove to be "a game-changer for this very large patient population," but he also said more sizes of the device are needed for these patients.
