Abstract: A method of manufacturing a valve repair device for repairing a native valve of a patient includes: folding a strip of material formed from shape-memory alloy around a jig to form a coaption element and a pair of paddles connected to the coaption element, wherein the paddles are movable between an open position and a closed position and are configured to attach to the native valve of the patient; and heat treating the strip of material to shape-set the strip of material in the shape of the coaption element and paddles.

Abstract: An exemplary valve repair device for repairing a native valve of a patient includes: a collar; a coaption element attached to the collar; and a pair of paddles are connected to the coaption element. The collar has a plurality of engagement portions configured to releasably engage a delivery apparatus. The paddles are movable between an open position and a closed position and are configured to attach to the native valve of the patient. The paddles are circumferentially disposed between the engagement portions.

IPC: A61F2/24
Abstract: An implantable prosthetic device has a coaption element and at least one anchor. The coaption element is configured to be positioned within the native heart valve orifice to help fill a space where the native valve is regurgitant and form a more effective seal. The coaption element can have a structure that is impervious to blood. The coaption element can be connected to leaflets of the native valve by the anchor.

Abstract: An device for treating a native valve includes a sealing element and an anchoring element. The sealing element is made from a braided mesh material. The sealing element is dimensioned to be deployed in an annulus of a native valve of a heart at a position between native valve leaflets to contact the native valve leaflets during ventricular systole to create a seal to prevent regurgitation of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium. The sealing element is configured to both be radially expanded and radially reduced while at the position between the native valve leaflets. The anchoring element is adapted for deployment in the heart, the anchoring element coupled to the sealing element and configured to support the sealing element at the desired position between native valve leaflets.
