Abstract: This anchoring device (10) comprises; a support (14) to be held on the patient; a connecting assembly (18) mounted on the support (14); an introducer (12) receiving a clip (16) attached to the connecting assembly (18), the clip (16) defining a central passage (60) extending along a longitudinal axis (B) and a longitudinal opening (62) for inserting the introducer (12); and a holding system (20) for holding the introducer (12) in position in the dip (16). The holding system (20) includes at least one reversible locking pad (88) for immobilizing the introducer (12), the holding system (20) being able to change from a released configuration to a configuration in which the introducer (12) is locked in position.

Abstract: A system for evaluating simulation-based medical training of a user, the simulation-based medical training being carried out using a simulator and including a medical procedure, the system including a user sensing module for acquiring a physiological signal of the user, a simulation data acquisition module configured to connect to the simulator and acquire data produced by the simulator, and a processing module configured to process the physiological signal of the user and the acquired data produced by the simulator, the processing including computing the value of a metric representative of the training of the user for the medical procedure, the metric being based at least on the physiological signal of the user and on the acquired data produced by the simulator, create a training evaluation report of the user, the training evaluation report including the value of the metric for the medical procedure.

Abstract: An elastic ring, defining an inner opening, an outer contour and an annular bearing surface between the inner opening and the outer contour. The ring is deformable between a rest position and an insertion position in which the inner opening has a diameter greater than its diameter in the rest position. The ring is also elastically biased towards the rest position. The ring includes at least three strands passing through the ring, each strand having a first end and a second end positioned on the outer contour, the inner contour of the opening being defined by a portion of each strand and having a pseudo-polygonal shape.

Abstract: The kit includes: a first implant (16) defining a window (26), and a second implant (18) including a second tubular body (42) designed to be positioned in the window (26). The second implant (18) includes a retaining member for retaining the second implant (18) relative to the first implant. The kit further includes a retaining ring (20) for retaining the second implant (18) attached on the first tubular body (22) in the window (26) and delimiting an insertion passage (60) for the second implant (18). The retaining ring (20) is elastically deformable in the window (26) to allow a reversible increase of at least 20%, advantageously at least 30%, of the outer contour of the insertion passage (60).

Abstract: A method for producing an aortic or mitral heart valve prosthesis and the resulting aortic or mitral heart valve. The method is characterized in that it essentially consists in producing the prosthesis by shaping a textile material. The invention is more particularly applicable in the field of medicine, in particular repair surgery, and especially in heart surgery, more particularly heart prostheses.

Abstract: The invention relates to a valve endoprosthesis, characterised in that it substantially comprises an extensible stent or frame (1) made of several parts, i.e. an upper cylinder (11), a lower bearing portion (21) having the shape of a truncated cone and a maximum diameter higher than that of the aortic ring and decreasing down to the diameter of the extensible stent or frame (1) in the direction of the proximal end, and arches (31), the upper cylinder (11) being connected to the lower bearing portion (21) via mounts (41) and by a valve (2) connected to said stent (1) by stitches, staples or clips. The invention can particularly be used in the field of medicine, in particular in plastic surgery, and particularly in cardiac surgery, in particular for cardiac prostheses.
