摘要： A tissue shaping device adapted to reshape target tissue adjacent to a lumen. In some embodiments, the device includes an expandable and contractable anchor, with the anchor having an adjustable height anchoring portion adapted to engage a wall of the lumen in at least first and second anchor heights, the anchoring portion being further adapted to be changed from the first anchor height to the second anchor height by a substantially proximally or a substantially distally directed actuation force. The invention is also a tissue shaping system including a tissue shaping device and a tool for adjusting the height of an anchor of the device. The invention also includes methods of using such tissue shaping devices and systems.

摘要： The invention is a tissue shaping device. In some embodiments, the device includes an a reshaping element and an anchor adapted to anchor the device in a lumen, the anchor having a wire adapted to contact a wall of the lumen with an anchoring force when the device is deployed in the lumen and a force distribution element adapted to distribute the anchoring force more along a first anchoring axis than along a second anchoring axis. The invention is also a method of deploying a tissue shaping device in a lumen. In some embodiments the method includes the steps of placing an anchor in contact with a wall of the lumen to exert an anchoring force on the lumen wall; and distributing the anchoring force more along a first anchoring axis than along a second anchoring axis.
