    摘要: A prosthesic valve for implantation in a body duct that can cover a range of target sizes by a single device. The valve comprises of three main elements:1) a support cylindrical frame structure that can be collapsed to a small diameter for insertion into the body and that can expand to a large diameter when positioned in the target implantation site, the expansion of the frame being limited by the native valve diameter, which the valve is implanted within. In some cases this may be self-expandable;2) A frustoconical leaflet support frame that has an inflow side and an outflow side. The inflow side of the leaflet support frame is attached to the cylindrical frame and can be expanded along with the cylindrical frame to a range of diameters up to the diameter of the body duct, while the outflow side is limited in its opening diameter to a smaller constant diameter;3) Flexible leaflets are attached to the leaflet support frame to create a valve that allows flow from inflow to outflow, but prevents flow in the opposite direction.A delivery catheter dilates the valve while the frustoconical leaflet support system enables the valve to function (open and close) during the deployment process. Unlike prior prosthetic valves that only allow valve expansion, the valve of the invention may be collapsed if needed in order to re position or retrieve the valve.

    摘要: A two-stage or component-based valve prosthesis that can be quickly and easily implanted during a surgical procedure is provided. The prosthetic valve comprises a support structure that is deployed at a treatment site. The prosthetic valve further comprises a valve member configured to be quickly connected to the support structure. The support structure may take the form of a stent that is expanded at the site of a native valve. If desired, the native leaflets may remain and the stent may be used to hold the native valve open. In this case, the stent may be balloon expandable and configured to resist the powerful recoil force of the native leaflets. The support structure is provided with a coupling means for attachment to the valve member, thereby fixing the position of the valve member in the body. The valve member may be a non-expandable type, or may be expandable from a compressed state to an expanded state. The system is particularly suited for rapid deployment of heart valves in a conventional open-heart surgical environment.

    摘要: An implantable prosthetic valve assembly having a support stent, or frame, having circumferential struts with multiple bends forming obtuse angles when the valve assembly is expanded to its functional size. The frame can be manufactured with one or more of the circumferential struts in a partially collapsed state and a flexible valve member can be mounted to the partially collapsed frame. The partially collapsed struts can be formed with multiple bends having angles selected to facilitate crimping of the frame to a profile suitable for percutaneous delivery. When the frame is expanded, the bends can expand to form obtuse angles, thereby enhancing the rigidity of the frame to better resist closing forces exerted on the valve assembly.

    摘要: An improved crimping mechanism well-suited for use with stented prosthetic heart valves. The crimping mechanism includes a plurality of jaws configured for linear non-rotational movement toward a central axis. A rotational plate is formed with a plurality of spiral grooves or tracks for engaging the jaws. Rotational movement of the spiral tracks produces linear movement of the jaws. Nesting of the inner ends of the jaws permits each to be acted on along different radial lines while their inner faces move together evenly to reduce the crimping aperture in a smooth fashion. The crimping mechanism is particularly well-suited for use with stented prosthetic heart valves, such as a prosthetic aortic valve, though it can also be applied to other stented heart valves, venous valves, and even stent grafts which tend to be fairly large.

    摘要: A method of replacing a deficient native aortic valve with a self-expandable prosthetic valve is disclosed. The method involves advancing a self-expandable prosthetic valve through a tapered tube for crimping the prosthetic valve into a crimped diameter. The prosthetic valve is then advanced into a restriction tube for maintaining the prosthetic valve in the crimped diameter. The prosthetic valve is then advanced into a body and is positioned within the deficient native aortic valve. The prosthetic valve is then released from the restriction tube such that the prosthetic valve self-expands to an expanded diameter for anchoring within the deficient native aortic valve. The prosthetic valve comprises an expandable tubular support frame and a valve assembly positioned within the support frame. The valve assembly is formed with pericardial tissue and has three leaflets for providing blockage to a reverse flow of blood.

    摘要: A two-part implantable heart valve and procedure are disclosed that allow expansion and positioning of a first part of the implantable heart valve having a temporary or transient valvular structure. A second part of the implantable heart valve is deployed within the first part and attaches thereto. The valvular structure of the second part then acts to function as the heart valve replacement. A tool or system is provided for determining an adequate percutaneous heart valve size for a given stenotic valve. A balloon can be inflated inside the stenotic valve to a desired pressure. When this pressure is reached an angiographic image is taken and the balloon diameter is measured at a waist area created by contact between the balloon and the stenotic valve. The diameter represents the minimum percutaneous heart valve diameter to be implanted.
