MECHANICALLY-EXPANDABLE PROSTHETIC HEART VALVE
Abstract:
A prosthetic heart valve includes an annular frame that is movable between a radially expanded state and a radially compressed state. The prosthetic heart valve includes one or more compliant actuators coupled to the annular frame. Each compliant actuator is configured to produce radial expansion of the annular frame and retain the annular frame in the radially expanded state. The prosthetic heart valve can be coupled to a handle of a delivery apparatus for delivery to an implantation site.
