Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of stabilizers for use in delivering a replacement heart valve. The stabilizers can receive a portion of a delivery system, such as a handle, to prevent unwanted motion of the delivery system. The stabilizer can include a linear actuator for adjusting a position of the delivery system once held within the stabilizer.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for loading and deploying implants from delivery apparatuses. The apparatuses in certain embodiments may comprise crimping devices for compressing an implant for insertion into a portion of a delivery apparatus. The apparatuses in certain embodiments may comprise features of delivery apparatuses allowing for improved loading and deployment of an implant from the delivery apparatuses.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are described herein to provide improved treatment of a tricuspid valve. Such treatment may include tricuspid valve replacement, which may include providing a prosthetic tricuspid valve within the tricuspid valve annulus. Delivery systems for delivering the prosthetic tricuspid valve to the tricuspid valve annulus are disclosed herein. Treatment may also include repair of the tricuspid valve.

Abstract: Devices and methods for securing a tissue anchor in tissue of a patient, in particular to ensure proper deployment of a cardiac tissue anchor by regulating the force or pressure of a deployment tool against the tissue. One way to ensure proper deployment force is to visualize the distal end of the tissue anchoring catheter from outside the body using a display for an imaging sensor, where the distal end of the catheter changes configuration when it is pressed against the tissue. Another method involves automatically regulating the pressure applied to the tissue prior to deployment of the tissue anchor, which may also be used in conjunction with visualization. Several safety locks to prevent deployment of the tissue anchor prior to establishment of the proper pressure are disclosed, which again may be used with visualization and/or an automated pressure regulator.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods disclosed herein are provided for a motorized implant delivery system. The delivery system may utilize a processor for control of at least one motor for actuating a delivery apparatus. The delivery system may include sensors configured sense one or more of a condition of the patient's body or a condition of the delivery apparatus. The processor may process the signals provided by the sensors, which may comprise feedback signals to the processor.
