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.

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:
An annuloplasty implant comprising an inner core of a shape memory material, an outer covering arranged radially outside said inner core material to cover at least part of said inner core, wherein said outer covering is resilient to conform to said inner core during movement of said shape memory material, wherein said outer covering comprises a material having surface properties to promote endothelialization. Two portions of the implant may be joined by a recess to be flexible with respect to each other by a bending motion at the recess. The two portions may also have a predefined breaking point at the recess.

A medical system (300) is disclosed for treating a defective mitral valve (MV) having an annulus (A). The system (300) comprises in combination a removable and flexible elongate displacement unit (301) for temporary insertion into a coronary sinus (CS) adjacent the valve, wherein the displacement unit has a delivery state for delivery into said CS, and an activated state to which the displacement unit is temporarily and reversibly transferable from the delivery state. The displacement unit comprises a proximal reversibly expandable portion (302), a distal anchoring portion (303) being movable in relation to the proximal expandable portion in a longitudinal direction of the displacement unit to the activated state in which the shape of the annulus is modified to a modified shape (A′); and an annuloplasty device (102) for permanent fixation at the mitral valve annulus by annuloplasty of the valve when the modified shape is obtained. The annuloplasty device (102) comprises a fixation structure that is adapted to retain the modified shape.

Disclosed is a valve (502) 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 (602) and a flange (708). 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.

摘要:
A method for connecting an annuloplasty implant with a delivery and retrieval device includes retracting the annuloplasty implant towards a locking structure of the delivery and retrieval device with a retrieval element. The retrieval element connects the annuloplasty implant with the delivery and retrieval device when the annuloplasty implant is disconnected from the delivery and retrieval device. A complementary mating surface at an end portion of the annuloplasty implant is interlocked with a locking structure of the delivery and retrieval device. The complementary mating surface has a recess for locking longitudinal movement of the annuloplasty implant when it is received in the locking structure. The complementary mating surface has a first locking surface aligned in a first radial direction (R) to lock rotational movement of the annuloplasty implant, when received in the locking structure, around the longitudinal direction.
