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.

Abstract: This is a medical device, specifically used in surgery. It is a wire having distal radio-opaque markers and may be used, for instance, in endovascular procedures as a marker wire for estimating or referencing the structural attributes of internal physical features. In addition, the inventive marker wire may be used as a guide wire for a catheter used in endovascular procedures.

Abstract: This invention is a surgical device. In particular, it is a low profile, single lumen catheter preferably having a movable seal or seat that allows the balloon to be inflated by sealing against the movable guidewire or against itself. An additional variation of the invention includes a non-removable guidewire situated in the catheter body in such a way to provide or add stiffness to the otherwise flexible distal section of the catheter during a procedure. An enhanced strain relief transition joint between significantly stiffer proximal section and the more flexible distal section is provided. Finally, methods of using the inventive balloon catheter are also shown.
