  • Publication number: 20210369459
    Abstract: A prosthetic venous valve includes an expanding anchoring frame, a valve seat at the middle portion of the anchoring frame, a ball disposed within the lumen of the anchoring frame and having an outer diameter, and least one ball retention tether coupled with the ball and the anchoring frame. The ball retention tether includes at least one elastic component or material. The anchoring frame has an upstream end, a downstream end, a middle portion and a lumen extending through the anchoring frame from the upstream end to the downstream end. The ball moves between an open position, in which the ball is located apart from the valve seat, and a closed position, in which the ball is located in contact with or near the valve seat to reduce or prevent backflow of blood through the prosthetic venous valve.
