Gloria dedicated her life to helping others, working as an emergency room nurse before earning her MBA and taking on leadership roles in hospital administration and nonprofit social services – all while overcoming her own challenges and raising two children on her own. Throughout her life, she underwent multiple surgical procedures, including a lumpectomy and gall bladder and appendix removal. After being diagnosed with #AorticStenosis, Gloria was anxious about the prospect of yet another surgery. However, instead of an open-heart procedure, her doctor recommended a transcatheter heart valve replacement. Gloria is now back to dancing, golfing and doing what she loves. ❤️ Gloria joined other patients and their care partners at the #PatientExperience this spring and we’re endlessly thankful for her perspective, which will help us to continue improving our technologies for future patients. Follow along this month for more of these inspiring #PatientStories. #WhatMakesOurHeartsBeat #HeartHealth #HeartOfInnovation

Global leader in the medical device industry with a patient-focused culture of innovation
Über uns
Edwards Lifesciences (NYSE: EW), is the global leader in patient-focused medical innovations for structural heart disease, as well as critical care and surgical monitoring. We thrive on discovery and expanding the boundaries of medical technology, serving patients in 100+ countries, with the help of our employees in areas including Clinical Affairs, Quality Engineering, Research & Development, Regulatory Affairs, Sales & Marketing, corporate functions and more. Our roots date back to 1958 when Miles Lowell Edwards, a retired engineer with a background in hydraulics and fuel pump operations, set out to build the first artificial heart. Edwards believed the heart could be mechanized and was encouraged by Dr. Albert Starr to focus on developing an artificial heart valve. After just two years, the first Starr-Edwards mitral valve was developed and successfully placed in a patient. This innovation spawned Edwards Laboratories. Miles’ fascination with healing the heart and helping patients with heart disease stemmed from his own experience with rheumatic fever as a teenager and continues to fuel our patient-first culture today. Today, we are as passionate about providing innovative solutions for people fighting cardiovascular disease as we have ever been. It's our Credo. It takes integrity, collaboration, innovation, and focus. We are leaders in the design and manufacture of tissue replacement heart valves and repair products as well as advanced hemodynamic monitoring. We partner with physicians to innovate products designed to help patients live longer, healthier, and more productive lives. Our work is both rewarding and a privilege. The importance of what we do defines our approach. We work together to create an environment where ideas can flourish and we provide our people with the resources, expertise and support to bring those ideas to life.

Patrick was born with a heart murmur and was told he’d never be able to play contact sports and would need regular heart check-ups throughout his life. He eventually found his passion in competitive swimming. He went on to swim for a USA Swimming club and played water polo in high school and college. During one of his regular check-ups, his care team discovered his bicuspid aortic valve needed to be replaced. Patrick and his surgeon opted for an Edwards valve. Patrick is now back to swimming and has become a certified U.S. Masters Swimming coach, competing in his first national meet since his valve replacement. ❤️ We’re grateful to Patrick and all the patients who attended this year’s #PatientExperience for sharing their stories, which help us improve experiences for future patients. Stay tuned this month as we share more stories from inspiring patients whose lives have been touched by our technology. #WhatMakesOurHeartsBeat #PatientStories #HeartHealth #HeartOfInnovation

Edwards Lifesciences CVP for Global Supply Chain and Quality Joe Nuzzolese this morning joined the Valencian president, Carlos Mazón, and the mayoress of Moncada, Amparo Orts, to announce plans for a future manufacturing facility in Moncada that will employ up to 1,200 people and involve an investment of approximately 150 million euros. The new facility will manufacture Edwards surgical and transcatheter heart valve replacement technologies and will strengthen and add resiliency to the company’s global manufacturing network to better serve its growing European patient population and strengthen Edwards’ ability to serve even more structural heart disease patients around the world. The facility will potentially generate thousands of indirect jobs and opportunities for local businesses in Moncada and the surrounding area. “Edwards has been a part of the Valencian Community for nearly 25 years and continues to be attracted by the vibrancy of the region leading us to make this significant investment in the area,” said Nuzzolese. “I want to thank the government of Spain, and the leaders of Valencia and Moncada for their partnership in making this project possible.”
