    摘要: A heart valve assembly includes an annular prosthesis including an annular member and a sewing cuff extending radially from the annular member, and a valve member including a frame and a plurality of leaflets carried by struts. The annular prosthesis includes a plurality of pockets extending upwardly from the annular prosthesis for receiving a portion of the frame for securing the valve member to the annular prosthesis. Each pocket may include a flexible rim extending upwardly the sewing cuff and a cover at least partially defining a recess. The rim may be deflectable radially outwardly to accommodate a portion of the frame being received in the recess, and may be resiliently biased to return inwardly when released to cover the portion of the frame with the respective cover. The valve member may be further secured to the annular prosthesis by an interference fit between the rim and the frame.

    摘要: Decorative badges are disclosed that removably attach to a user's clothes and include a team logo and an illuminating element that can be switched on or off. In some examples, the illuminating decorative badge includes a switch that automatically causes the illuminating element to light when the badge is attached to the user's clothes. In some further examples, the decorative badge allows the team logo and illuminating element to be swapped, so as to allow the decorative badge to be repurposed for a variety of sports teams. The decorative badge is typically round in shape, but can be fashioned in a variety of different shapes to suit the user's purposes.

    摘要: Described here are methods and devices for forming tracts in tissue. Some of the devices feature an elongate member, a suction member coupled to a distal portion of the elongate member, and a tissue-piercing member slidably housed within the elongate member for forming a tract in tissue. Other devices feature more than one suction member. Methods for forming tracts in tissue are also described here. In some methods, a device is advanced adjacent tissue, where the device features one or more suction members and a tissue-piercing member. Suction is applied so that the tissue is drawn against the one or more suction members, and a tissue-piercing member is advanced in a first direction through the drawn tissue to form a tract in or through the tissue. Kits incorporating one or more of the devices described here, in conjunction with one or more tools or the like, are also described here.

    摘要: Described here are devices, methods, and kits for forming one or more tracts in tissue. The tracts may be formed in any suitable or desirable tissue, and may seal relatively quickly without the need for a supplemental closure device. In some variations, the methods may comprise advancing a tissue-piercing member along a predetermined path of a tract-forming device to form one or more tracts in tissue (e.g., a vessel wall). The tract or tracts may, for example, provide access for one or more tools.
