摘要:
A method of repairing a defective heart valve is disclosed comprising directing an implant delivery catheter to form a first curve of the implant delivery catheter around chordae of the heart valve on a ventricular side of the heart valve, inserting the implant delivery catheter through the heart valve to an atrial side thereof, forming a second curve of the delivery catheter along an annulus of the heart valve on the atrial side, and ejecting an annuloplasty implant from the delivery catheter while retracting the delivery catheter such that the annuloplasty implant is arranged along the first and second curve on the ventricular and atrial side.

Disclosed is a valve for short time replacement, for taking over the function of and/or for temporary support of a native valve in a heart, the valve being positioned through the native valve upon implantation, the valve comprising an at least partially collapsible and/or at least partially expandable tube and a flange. The valve allows for fast and easy replacement of a native valve, and more time for medical personnel to make decisions, prepare and/or perform surgery/medical intervention. Thus, the valve may provide for an improved quality of surgery/medical intervention.

Disclosed is a medical system for short time replacement and repair of a native valve, which comprises an artificial valve (502); and a device for collecting and arranging chordae and/or leaflets to hold and/or stabilize the artificial valve in a desired position, the device comprising: a unit for grasping a plurality of chordae and/or leaflets. The system and/or device allows for fast and easy replacement of a native valve, fast and easy positioning of a temporary artificial valve, and more time for medical personnel to make decisions, prepare and/or perform surgery/medical intervention.
摘要:
A device for improving the function of a heart valve comprises a first loop-shaped support, which is configured to abut a first side of the heart valve, and a first flange unit being connected to said first loop-shaped support. The flange unit is configured to be arranged against said annulus when said first loop-shaped support is abutting said heart valve.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to an arrangement, a loop-shaped support, a prosthetic heart valve and a method of repairing or replacing a native heart valve. With the method or the arrangement, leakage or regurgitation between a prosthetic heart valve and the surrounding valve tissue is prevented. In one embodiment, an arrangement for replacement or repair of a native heart valve is provided, which comprises a loop-shaped support (41) and a prosthetic heart valve (70) and wherein an outer segment (32) of the loop-shaped support (41) is positionable towards surrounding valve tissue of a native heart valve and wherein an outer surface (74) of the prosthetic heart valve (70) is positionable towards an inner segment (34) of the loop-shaped support (41) so as to prevent paravalvular leakage or regurgitation between the prosthetic heart valve (70) and the surrounding valve tissue of the native heart valve.

摘要:
A method for repairing a defective heart valve includes directing a delivery catheter to form a first curve around the heart valve at a first side of the heart valve leaflets and forming a second curve of the delivery catheter around the heart valve on a second side of the heart valve leaflets. The first and second curves are connected through a commissure of the heart valve and an annuloplasty implant is ejected from the delivery catheter while the delivery catheter is retracted such that the annuloplasty implant is arranged along the first and second curve.

摘要:
A medical arrangement for introducing an implant into an anatomical target position comprises a first introducer and a guide wire. The guide wire is configured to be introduced before the implant into or towards the anatomical target position. The implant is configured to be delivered along the guide wire into the anatomical target position. The guide wire is configured to be retracted after the implant has been introduced into said anatomical target position so that said object essentially maintains the shape taken when introduced into said anatomical target position.
摘要:
A medical device is disclosed that reinforces weakened or degenerated areas of at least a portion of a leaflet (24) Of the heart valve. Function of a heart valve is thus improved. The medical device comprises at least a first partly flexible leaflet reinforcement patch (30) having an extension between an inner section (34) and an outer section (32), wherein said outer section (32) is configured to be oriented towards said annulus, and said inner section (34) is configured to be oriented towards said inner section of said valve tissue, and at least a portion of said inner section (34) of said flexible leaflet reinforcement patch (32) having at least one of said plurality of leaflets (24) in juxtaposition to said portion of said inner section (34), and said portion of said inner section (34) being positioned to provide reinforcement to said plurality of leaflets (24).
