Title:
MITRAL VALVE SPACER AND SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPLANTING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/152375
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A trans-femoral implant includes an anchor assembly and a balloon assembly configured to be separately delivered to an implant site within a heart. Once delivered, the anchor assembly and balloon assembly may be coupled to form an implant within the heart. The balloon anchor may include a fluid inflatable balloon that may be selectively filled via a balloon filling valve. The balloon assembly may further include a latching mechanism that may couple with a distal end of the anchor assembly, such that the length of the implant may be adjusted within the heart.
