摘要： An annuloplasty ring prosthesis which is formed from a selectively flexible body element having at least one defined length about its circumference which is substantially rigid. The remainder of the body element gradually increases in flexibility. The body element is a substantially annular shaped body element which is designed to be sutured to the annulus of a heart valve. The body element is formed from a non-corrosive, anti-magnetic material, and is wrapped in a material through which sutures can be drawn to suture the prosthesis to the heart valve annulus.

摘要： A ring prosthesis which provides different flexibilities at various points about the circumference of an associated heart valve. Specifically, the annuloplasty ring prosthesis of the invention includes a segmented body formed by two or more segments. The individual segments form a body which is substantially circular and shaped proportional to fit about the annulus of the associated heart valve. The individual segments are held in position with respect to each by a flexible joint. This flexible joint is formed by covering the segments with a flexible material which fits snugly about the segments. The cover is tied off between the adjacent segments to further restrain movement of the segments with respect to each other.

摘要： A mechanical heart valve having one or more leaflets pivotally fitted in a substantially cylindrical shaped valve body formed from a resiliently deformable material. A stiffening member formed from substantially nonresilient material fit about the valve body exterior wall to provide structural integrity to the valve body. Stresses which are normally applied to the heart valve body during the opening and closing of the valve are absorbed or cushioned by the incorporation of a rubber-like body between the stiffening member and the retainer member. Further cushioning is provided by incorporating another rubber-like body in the sewing ring. This second body extends out from the exterior surface of the valve body. Finally, a length of fabric is positioned about the retainer and shock absorbing bodies. This design provides a precisely calibrated rotational torque which allows for optimum orientation of the leaflets by the implanting surgeon.

摘要： An anatomically approximate prosthetic heart valve includes dissimilar flexible leaflets, dissimilar commissures and/or a non-circular flow orifice. The heart valve may be implanted in the mitral position and have one larger leaflet oriented along the anterior aspect so as to mimic the natural anterior leaflet. Two other smaller leaflets extend around the posterior aspect of the valve. A basic structure providing peripheral support for the leaflets includes two taller commissures on both sides of the larger leaflet, with a third, smaller commissure between the other two leaflets. The larger leaflet may be thicker and/or stronger than the other two leaflets. The base structure defines a flow orifice intended to simulate the shape of the mitral annulus during the systolic phase. For example, the flow orifice may be elliptical. A relatively wide sewing ring has a contoured inflow end and is attached to the base structure in such a way that the valve can be implanted in an intra-atrial position and the taller commissures do not extend too far into the left ventricle, therefore avoiding injury to the ventricle.

摘要： A prosthetic heart valve comprising a frame which includes outer and inner bands and a plurality of wire-like members interlocked with the bands and forming the tip portions of commissure supports. The bands are covered with outer and inner jackets, and valve leaflets are attached to the frame and extend over a distal edge of the bands. The ends of the jackets form flexible, resilient fingers which extend between the distal edge and the valve leaflets to shield the valve leaflets from the distal edge.
