Patent number: 10070954Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve having an inflow end and an outflow end includes a collapsible and expandable stent including a plurality of cells arranged in rows extending around a circumference of the stent, at least one of the rows forming a flared portion having a diameter that is larger than diameters of others of the rows. The stent further includes engaging arms disposed adjacent the outflow end and extending toward the inflow end, the engaging arms being configured to couple to heart tissue to anchor the stent. A collapsible and expandable valve assembly has a plurality of leaflets disposed within the stent.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2016Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Division, Inc.Inventors: Peter N.

Publication number: 20180177595Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve having an inflow end and an outflow end includes a stent having a collapsed condition, an expanded condition, and a plurality of cells arranged in circumferential rows. The stent may include one or more securement features. One securement feature may be an anchor arm having a body portion and a free end extending from the body portion, the body portion being coupled to a perimeter of one of the plurality of cells, with the free end extending toward the inflow end in an expanded condition of the anchor arm. Another securement feature may include a flange formed of a braided mesh and having a body portion coupled to the stent and a flared portion adjacent the inflow end of the prosthetic heart valve.

Patent number: 9968433Abstract: An embolic protection device includes an outer surface that is configured to form a substantially sealed relationship with a body lumen such that emboli are deflected and/or captured by the outer surface before such emboli can travel to other parts of the body. An inner surface of the embolic protection device includes a longitudinally extending lumen through which instrumentation may be inserted, facilitating passage of such instrumentation through the body lumen while minimizing risk to the patient from emboli.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2013Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Division, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Adams, Mathias Charles Glimsdale, Brian Joseph Perszyk, Chris Quinn, Brooke Ren

Publication number: 20160361161Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve having an inflow end and an outflow end includes a collapsible and expandable stent having a plurality of commissure features, a plurality of first struts and a plurality of second struts. The plurality of first struts define a substantially cylindrical portion and the plurality of second struts have first ends attached to the cylindrical portion and free ends projecting radially outward from the cylindrical portion and configured to couple to adjacent heart tissue to anchor the stent. A collapsible and expandable valve assembly disposed within the stent has a plurality of leaflets coupled to the commissure features.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2016Publication date: December 15, 2016Applicant: St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Division, Inc.Inventors: Peter N. Braido, Mina S. Fahim, Thomas M. Benson, Theodore Paul Dale, Andrea N. Para, Mark Krans, Mathias Charles Glimsdale
