  • Publication number: 20240082001
    Abstract: A native leaflet treatment system and method for treating native heart valve leaflets before heart valve repair or replacement procedure. The treatment system includes a delivery apparatus configured to enter the heart, and a native leaflet treatment device stored in the delivery apparatus in a compressed state. The treatment device includes a clamping structure, which is configured to retain at least a portion of the native leaflets in the deployed state. The treatment device is delivered into the heart using the delivery apparatus, and released near the native heart valve, where the treatment device expands and the clamping structure captures and holds the native leaflet, such that the native leaflets will no longer block blood flow. This improves the dynamics of the blood flow which facilitates subsequent surgical procedures (minimally-invasive surgery or open surgery) for heart valve repair or replacement.

  • Patent number: 10426605
    Abstract: A mitral valve replacement device is adapted to be deployed at a mitral valve position in a human heart. The device has an atrial flange defining an atrial end of the device, a ventricular portion defining a ventricular end of the device, the ventricular portion having a height ranging between 2 mm to 15 mm, and an annulus support that is positioned between the atrial flange and the ventricular portion. The annulus support includes a ring of anchors extending radially therefrom, with an annular clipping space defined between the atrial flange and the ring of anchors. A plurality of leaflet holders positioned at the atrial end of the atrial flange, and a plurality of valve leaflets secured to the leaflet holders, and positioned inside the atrial flange at a location above the native annulus.
