Abstract: The present invention relates to an occluder device (1) comprising a supporting structure (2) said supporting structure (2) comprising a central portion (201) having a distal end (202) and a proximal end (203); said supporting structure (2) comprising distal branches (204) extending away from said distal end (202) of the central portion (201); said supporting structure (2) comprising proximal branches (205) extending away from said proximal end (203) of the central portion (201); said proximal and distal branches (204, 205) defining elastic hooked struts which are rotatable away from the central portion (201) to anchor a septum (7) of a heart (103); said occluder device (1) further comprising at least one membrane (8); said membrane (8) comprises a membrane body (11) connected to the distal or proximal branches (204; 205); when the branches (204, 205) are in the unfolded or lying position, said membrane (8) has a closed position where the membrane (8) is in a configuration which provides maximum occlusion to

Abstract: Disclosed herein are valves, such as an aortic valve replacement can be delivered via a transcatheter approach can be deployed by a single operator through a lower profile (e.g., 8-12 French, or even less) delivery system. Lower profile delivery systems can advantageously potentially expedite procedures and reduce complications, as they tend to be easier to navigate through the vascular anatomy. In some embodiments, the valve system can be deployed in a multiple stage approach as two separate components, rather than a single unified component; first a stent, followed by a discrete structure such as a valve support that includes the valve leaflets. The components can be positioned separately during delivery at different locations in and over the catheter. The stent can include a pair of rows of hooks directed in directions opposite to one another.
