  • Publication number: 20250041056
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for treating native heart valves are disclosed herein. A system for delivering a prosthetic device into a heart of a patient includes an elongated catheter body and a delivery capsule. The delivery capsule can be hydraulically driven to deploy at least a portion of a prosthetic heart valve device. The delivery capsule can release the prosthetic heart valve device at a desired treatment site in a patient.

  • Publication number: 20250009498
    Abstract: A heart valve repair device, comprising an atrial-fixation member having an expandable mesh configured to have oval or circular shape in a deployed configuration, the atrial-fixation member defining a central lumen; and a baffle extending from a portion of the atrial-fixation member, the baffle having an anterior portion with a smooth, atraumatic surface configured to coapt with at least a portion of one or more native leaflets of a native heart valve, a posterior portion configured to engage and displace at least a portion of another native leaflet of the native heart valve, wherein the baffle extends radially inward from the atrial-fixation member into the central lumen to approximate a closed position of the displaced native leaflet.

  • Patent number: 12169576
    Abstract: An authentication system for authenticating a user to access gated digital content includes a user computing device, a service provider server, an authentication service, and at least one identity provider. The service provider server is configured to require registration and authentication prior to providing the user with access to the gated digital content, and the at least one identity provider is configured to authenticate a user identity of the user. Upon receiving a request via the user computing device to access the gated digital content hosted by the service provider server, the authentication service displays an authentication platform interface to the user. The authentication platform interface displays at least one identity provider selector linked to the at least one identity provider, and the at least one identity provider is based on a policy of the authentication service set by the service provider.

  • Patent number: 11628063
    Abstract: Prosthetic heart valve devices for percutaneous replacement of native heart valves and associated systems and method are disclosed herein. A prosthetic heart valve device configured in accordance with a particular embodiment of the present technology can include an anchoring member having an upstream portion configured to engage with tissue on or near the annulus of the native heart valve and to deform in a non-circular shape to conform to the tissue. The device can also include a mechanically isolated valve support coupled to the anchoring member and configured to support a prosthetic valve. The device can further include an atrial extension member extending radially outward from the upstream portion of the anchoring member and which is deformable without substantially deforming the anchoring member. In some embodiments, the upstream portion of the anchoring member and the extension member may be deformed while the valve support remains sufficiently stable.

  • Publication number: 20220000621
    Abstract: Leaflet extension devices for cardiac valve leaflets and methods of treating cardiac valve leaflets. Several embodiments are devices for resolving regurgitation in a cardiac valve comprising an expandable member and a cover. The expandable member has a stabilizing portion, a fixation member in opposition to the stabilizing portion, and a coaptation portion between the stabilizing portion and the expandable member. The stabilizing portion and the fixation member clamps the first native leaflet between the stabilizing portion and the fixation member. The coaptation portion projects from the stabilizing portion and the fixation member inwardly with respect to a first native leaflet of a cardiac valve such that the coaptation portion functionally extends the first native leaflet. The cover is attached to at least the coaptation portion of the expandable member.

  • Patent number: 11197758
    Abstract: Devices and methods for implantation at a native mitral valve having a non-circular annulus and leaflets. One embodiment of the device includes a valve support having a first region configured to be attached to a prosthetic valve with a plurality of prosthetic leaflets and a second region. The device can further include an anchoring member having a longitudinal dimension and including a first portion configured to contact tissue at the non-circular annulus, a second portion configured to be attached to the valve support, and a lateral portion between the first portion and the second portion. The second portion of the anchoring member is attached to the second region of the valve support while in a low-profile configuration in which the anchoring member and the valve support are configured to pass through vasculature of a human. The lateral portion is transverse to the longitudinal dimension.
