Abstract: A basilica system for use in replacement heart valve implant procedures may include a first catheter including a side port disposed proximal of a distal tip, a conductive guidewire slidably disposed within the first catheter and configured to be advanced out the side port proximate a leaflet of a replacement heart valve implant disposed within a native heart valve of a patient, a second catheter including a lumen extending to a distal end of the second catheter, and a snare shaft slidably disposed within the second catheter, the snare shaft including a wire loop configured to grasp the conductive guidewire. The basilica system may include a delivery catheter. The first and second catheters may be disposed within the delivery catheter. The conductive guidewire may be configured to be electrically coupled to a source of RF energy. The conductive guidewire may be configured to puncture the leaflet.

Abstract: A system for delivering a replacement heart valve implant may include a handle and a valve capsule, an inner shaft extending from the handle to the capsule, an outer sheath over the inner shaft and extending from the handle to the capsule, a positioning sheath over the outer sheath and extending from the handle, a guide tube within the handle, and a distal hub attached to the positioning sheath. The distal hub may be disposed within and movable relative to the guide tube via rotation of the positioning sheath. A method of manufacturing the system may include positioning proximal and distal hubs within the guide tube, setting a first predetermined distance between proximal and distal capsule portions, moving the positioning sheath relative to the outer sheath to set a second predetermined distance between the hubs, and securing the distal hub within the guide tube at the second predetermined distance.

Abstract: An introducer sheath assembly includes an expandable introducer sheath including an expandable braid defining an elongate tubular member moveable between a collapsed configuration for delivery and an expanded configuration for deployment, the expandable braid having a first length when in the collapsed configuration and a second, reduced, length when in the expanded configuration. The introducer sheath assembly includes a dilator adapted to releasably hold the expandable introducer sheath in its collapsed configuration for delivery until the dilator is actuated to release the expandable braid from the dilator, thereby permitting the expandable braid to expand to its expanded configuration.

Abstract: A delivery system for delivering a stent-valve may include an inner shaft including a distal tip, a stent-valve crimped onto the inner shaft, a distal sheath disposed over at least a lower portion of the stent-valve, and a proximal sheath disposed over at least an upper portion of the stent-valve. The distal sheath has a proximal free end with an angled proximal edge defining a short side and a long side of the distal sheath. The proximal sheath is actuatable independently from the distal sheath, and moveable proximally to release the upper portion of the stent-valve. The distal sheath is moveable distally to release the lower portion of the stent-valve. The angled proximal edge releases a first side of the lower portion of the stent-valve before an opposite second side.

Abstract: A medical device system may include a delivery device including an outer sheath and an inner shaft having a coupler fixed to a distal end of the inner shaft; and a replacement heart valve implant releasably attached to the coupler. The replacement heart valve implant may include an expandable anchor member defining a central longitudinal axis; and a locking mechanism attached to the expandable anchor member, the locking mechanism being configured to engage with the coupler. The delivery device may include a collar configured to releasably secure the coupler to the locking mechanism. The collar may include a stop element configured to selectively prevent disengagement of the collar from the locking mechanism

Abstract: Methods and systems for securing a medical implant at a valve. An illustrative method may include advancing a delivery system though a vasculature to a target location. At the target location, the delivery system may be proximally retracted to expose a medical implant carried within a lumen of the delivery system. The medical implant may be radially expanded from a collapsed delivery configuration an expanded deployed configuration. A fixation mechanism delivery system may be advanced through the vasculature to the target location. A first fixation mechanism configured to engage a native tissue and a portion of the medical implant may be deployed from the fixation mechanism delivery system. After deploying the fixation mechanism, the medical implant may be released from the delivery system.
