Abstract: Disclosed are valve replacement devices, systems, and methods. valve replacement devices may comprise one- or two-piece systems comprising an adapter body and a valve assembly with leaflets positioned within the adapter body. In two-piece systems, the valve assembly may be removable from the adapter body such that both can be delivered together or separately, and the adapter body may remain implanted while the valve assembly may be removed and replaced (i.e., “revalved”). Also described are devices (such as a delivery catheter device), systems, and methods related to such delivering and revalving the valve replacement. Such delivery methods may include transseptal insertion of a new minimum leaflet structure, and securement of the valve replacement using several securement type (e.g., supra-annular, sub-annular, radial, leaflet securement, etc.). Also described is a braided helical design that mimics the heart's natural movement, and a flange structure for assisting the functioning of the valve replacement.

Abstract: Disclosed is a valve replacement comprising a braided helical design that mimics the heart's natural movement. The braided wire frame of the disclosed valve replacement may be compressed to enable compact and secure delivery into the heart and convenient control during implantation as well as the expansion and retraction when implanted or removed/replaced, preferably entirely via a catheter. The valve replacement may comprise a one-piece system comprising an adapter body with engaging mechanisms that secure to the heart, and a valve assembly with leaflets positioned within the adapter body. The valve replacement may also comprise a two-piece system comprising an adapter body and valve assembly that are compatible with each other yet wherein the valve assembly may be removable from the adapter body such that both can be delivered together or separately and such that the adapter body may remain implanted while the valve assembly may be removed and replaced.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for an implantable heart-valve adapter that enables compact and secure delivery into the heart and allows for convenient control of both the adapter during implantation as well as the expansion and retraction of the valve when implanted, removed, or replaced.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a replaceable heart-valve system comprising a tubular braided frame, wherein the tubular braided frame comprises an inflow end, an outflow end, and comprising one or more commissure posts extending vertically away from the inflow end. The valve system further comprises a leaflet assembly, wherein the leaflet assembly comprises at least one valve leaflet, wherein the at least one leaflet comprises an inflow end, an outflow end, and one or more commissure tabs extending horizontally away from the inflow end; and wherein the one or more commissure tabs of the at least one leaflet is connected to the one or more commissure posts of the tubular braided frame.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for heart-valve annulus repair techniques, comprising a reinforcing device with one or both of a heating mechanism or clamping mechanism. The heating mechanism may function by heating a localized portion of the annulus so as to reduce the circumference of the annulus and/or increase the stiffness of the tissue. The clamping mechanism may function by gathering or pinching an area of tissue to then reduce the circumference of the annulus and/or increase the stiffness of the tissue.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a replacement heart-valve delivery system, comprising a replacement heart valve and a delivery component. The delivery component enables control of the replacement heart valve such that it can control collapsing and expanding the heart valve. Due to the nature of the flexible wire frame making up the heart valve, as well as its size, the delivery component allow for flexibility in the delivery catheter. The claimed invention thus allows for less traumatic delivery, more precise delivery, and a greater number of options on how to deliver.
