The present disclosure provides methods of improving cardiac function, including delivering a band to a ventricle of a heart via at least one catheter; guiding the band through the heart to form a loop; pulling walls of the ventricle of the heart inwards by tightening the band following formation of the loop; following tightening, locking the band in the loop; and removing the at least one catheter from the heart.

Implantable ventricular band for improving cardiac function

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a cardiac device comprising a band configured to form a loop within a heart. The band may include a first end and a second end. The cardiac device may include an actuatable clasp associated with the first end of the band and configured to transition upon actuation from an open configuration to a closed configuration for forming the band into a fixed length loop when the second end passes through or past the clasp. The cardiac device may include a catheter configured to activate the actuatable clasp from the open configuration to the closed configuration. The cardiac device may include an insertion cable adapter, associated with the second end of the band, configured to be removably connected to a flexible insertion cable.
