It retains its original hemodynamic components and, once positioned using a new*parachuting mechanics, works as the original Trifecta.

From St. Jude:

Engineered to reduce wear and deterioration over time, the Trifecta GT valve stent is covered with tissue to allow improved tissue-to-tissue contact when the leaflets open and close. Additionally, the valve is treated with St. Jude Medical’sLinx™ AC Treatment, an anticalcification treatment designed to reduce tissue mineralization (hardening). The valve’s fatigue-resistant titanium stent provides a supportive frame within a patient’s heart for added durability.
