Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an audio communication method having two-way high quality audio transmission mechanism that includes steps outlined below. Communication between an audio communication apparatus and an external audio communication apparatus is performed to establish an audio link. An ability negotiation process is performed to determine the external audio communication apparatus supports ACL link technology. A coding negotiation process is performed to negotiate an audio encoding and decoding parameter. An audio delay negotiation process is performed to provide a first audio data delay parameter to the external audio communication apparatus and retrieve a second audio data delay parameter from the external audio communication apparatus to further determine an actual audio data delay parameter. A two-way audio transmission is performed according to the audio encoding and decoding parameter and the actual audio data delay parameter with the external audio communication apparatus.

Abstract: A method is provided for implanting a valve having at least one valve leaflet within the cardiovascular system of a subject. One step of the method includes preparing a substantially dehydrated bioprosthetic valve and then providing an expandable support member having oppositely disposed first and second ends and a main body portion extending between the ends. Next, the substantially dehydrated bioprosthetic valve is attached to the expandable support member so that the substantially dehydrated bioprosthetic valve is operably secured within the main body portion of the expandable support member. The expandable support member is then crimped into a compressed configuration and placed at a desired location within the cardiovascular system of the subject. Either before or after placement at the desired location, fluid, or blood re-hydrates the substantially dehydrated bioprosthetic valve.

Abstract: A method for replacing a native atrioventricular heart valve includes inserting a delivery catheter into the heart with a prosthetic apparatus retained in a compressed state inside of the delivery catheter. The prosthetic apparatus includes an annular anchoring member having a mesh structure made of Nitinol and defining a plurality of circumferentially extending rows of cells. A fabric layer is attached to an inner surface of the anchoring member. An annular support member made of Nitinol is disposed within the anchoring member. The support member is attached to the anchoring member with sutures. A prosthetic valve made of biological tissue is disposed within and secured to the support member. The method further includes allowing the prosthetic apparatus to self-expand to a radially expanded state in which the anchoring member contacts tissue of the native atrioventricular valve.
