  • Publication number: 20220331095
    Abstract: Disclosed is a composite skirt for a prosthetic heart valve. A stent includes an inflow segment, a transition segment and an outflow segment; the composite skirt includes at least two of: (1) a first skirt disposed at the inflow segment, (2) a second skirt disposed at the transition segment, and (3) a third skirt disposed at the outflow segment, wherein for the composite skirt, different skirt parameters are configured according different arrangement regions to adapt to primary tissues and reduce regurgitation. A prosthetic heart valve is further disclosed. For the composite skirt of this invention, in view of different functions in different regions of the valve, the skirt parameters of different regions are set such that the skirt is matched with a structure of the stent, thereby improving the functions of the prosthetic heart valve.
