    摘要: In one embodiment, the present invention provides a prosthesis that can be implanted within a heart to at least partially block gaps that may be present between the two mitral valve leaflets. In one preferred embodiment, the prosthesis includes an anchoring ring that expands within the left atrium to anchor the prosthesis and a pocket member fixed to the anchoring ring. The pocket member is positioned within the mitral valve, between the leaflets so that an open end of the pocket member is positioned within the left ventricle. When the mitral valve is open, blood flows past the pocket member, maintaining the pocket member in a collapsed state. When the mitral valve closes, the backpressure of the blood pushes into the pocket member, expanding the pocket member to an inflated shape. The mitral valve leaflets contact the expanded pocket member, allowing the prosthesis to block at least a portion of the openings between the leaflets, thereby minimizing regurgitated blood flow into the left atrium.

    摘要: A device for reshaping a mitral valve annulus (25), said device being elongate and having such dimensions as to be insertable into a coronary sinus (24). The device comprises fixing means (22, 23; 22a, 23a) for fixing the ends of the device within the coronary sinus (24); anda shape changing member (20a; 7; 7a; 9) extending between the fixing means (22, 23; 22a, 23a). The shape changing member (20a; 7; 7a; 9) includes a plurality of adjacent structural cells. The device includes resorbable delay means (21 a; 8; 8a; 10) that in a first configuration retrains at least two of said plurality of adjacent structural elements in a first, relatively elongate state of shape (K; D; E) and wherein the delay means in a second configuration releases said at least two adjacent structural elements to assume a second, relatively shortened state of shape (K'; D'; E'), thereby reducing a length of the shape-changing member (20a; 7; 7a; 9). The delay means (21 a; 8; 8a; 10) moves from its first configuration to its second configuration upon resorbtion of the delay means.

    摘要: Device for treating mitral annulus dilatation. The device comprises a balloon catheter (214) having proximal and distal ends; a lumen (213) extending therethrough; and a balloon (215); the balloon catheter (214) having contracted and deployed states, wherein the balloon (215) comprises a predetermined shape in the deployed state; and a stent (212) having contracted and deployed states, wherein the stent (212) is plastically deformable by the balloon catheter (214) and substantially conforms to the predetermined shape of the balloon (215) in the deployed state of the balloon catheter (214), wherein the stent (212) is configured to apply a compressive load on the mitral valve annulus in the deployed state.
