DELIVERY SYSTEM, METHOD, AND ANCHOR FOR MEDICAL IMPLANT PLACEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/069154
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An anchor (10) for a medical implant (12), methods of manufacturing the anchor (10), and procedures for placing a medical implant (12), such as for diagnosing, monitoring and/or treating cardiovascular diseases. The anchor (10) has a base portion (18) with first and second longitudinal ends (22,24) and a cage (20) therebetween. The anchor (10) further has flexible arms (26), flexible legs (28), features (52,54) for securing the medical implant (12) within the cage (20) of the base portion (18), and a coupler portion (30) connected to and spaced apart from the second longitudinal end (24) of the base portion (18). The anchor (10) is adapted to have a deployed configuration in which the arms (26) and legs (28) radially project away from the base portion (18), the arms (26) axially project toward the second longitudinal end (24) of the base portion (18), and the legs (28) axially project toward the first longitudinal end (22) of the base portion (18). Convex surfaces (36,44) of the arms (26) and legs (28) are adapted to clamp the anchor (10) to a wall (102).
