A minimally invasively implanted anchor support for securing a medical device to a heart wall including an anchoring member and an expandable distal anchor retraint which is implanted through the anchoring member, through the heart wall, and expands on the opposing heart wall side to anchor a medical device. A single-stage anchor system includes the distal flange and a two-stage anchor system includes the distal flange and a proximal flange which cooperates with the distal flange to secure a medical device to the heart wall and methods of a single-stage anchor system and a two-stage anchor system.

Transcatheter anchor support, systems and methods of implantation

A method of endovascularly delivering and implanting a medical assembly for minimally invasively implanting an atrial sealing skirt in the heart at an atrial sealing skirt deployment site, sealing the top brim against a respective atrial floor of the heart, and anchoring the atrial sealing skirt on an intracardiac wall at an implantation site and tethering the anchor and the sealing skirt.

Methods of implantation for transcatheter atrial sealing skirt, anchor, and tether

A medical assembly and methods for endovascularly implanting a valve in the heart having a valve and an anchor assembly for positioning and restraining the valve. An anchor delivery system introduces and implants the anchor into the implantation site and a valve delivery system introduces and seals the valve at the deployment site. The present invention also relates to methods of implantation of the medical assembly and the valve.

Transcatheter atrial sealing skirt, anchor, and tether and methods of implantation

A minimally invasively implanted anchor support for securing a medical prosthesis device with a tether to an implanted anchor. The anchor support includes a lock cap for connecting to the anchor, a tether swivel connected to the lock cap, a tock cone within the tether swivel and a tether collar on a proximal end of the tether swivel. An anchor support delivery system cooperates with the anchor support for securing to the lock cap.

Transcatheter anchor support and methods of implantation

An endovascular medical assembly and method for restoring chordal support to a leaflet of a heart valve by implanting artificial chordae tendinea in the heart. A chord is inserted into the heart endovascularly with a leaflet grasper which pierces the leaflet and implants the chord through the leaflet. An anchor assembly is implanted into an intracardiac wall and has anchor lines extending therefrom. The chord and an anchor line are assembled by a line gathering member and the tension of the chord is adjusted and secured. The chord is, thus, secured to the anchor assembly to support the leaflet.

Devices for transcatheter chordal implantation and methods of implantation

A medical assembly implanting a transcatheter heart valve in the heart at a valve deployment site and related methods of implantation and delivery. An anchor is endovascularly introduced into the heart and implanted to a cardiac wall with an anchor delivery system and delivery cable. A second delivery system introduces a tether which coupled to the implanted anchor and a transcatheter heart valve. The transcatheter heart valve includes either a top or bottom brim which is positioned to conform to the atrial floor at the deployment site.

Transcatheter anchoring assembly for a mitral valve, a mitral valve, and related methods

Anchor assemblies for endovascular introduction and implantation for tethering a replacement heart valve to a cardiac wall. An anchor delivery system introduces the assembly. The anchor may be either implanted with a tether connected thereto or implanted and then connected to a tether. If the latter, a tether assembly is mounted to the implanted anchor to connect the anchor to the valve. The anchors may be implanted into any cardiac wall including the interventricular septum or the epicardial space and the valve may replace the mitral or tricuspid valve.

Transcatheter atrial anchors and methods of implantation

An atrial sealing skirt for transcatheter valves and an atrial sealing skirt with an integrated valve to reduce paravalvular regurgitation, with or without the presence of intracardiac leads. The atrial sealing skirt includes a top brim which is positioned to conform to the atrial floor at the deployment site.

Transcatheter atrial sealing skirt and related method

A medical assembly implanting an atrial sealing skirt in the heart at an atrial sealing skirt deployment site and related methods of implantation and delivery. An anchor is endovascularly introduced into the heart and implanted to a cardiac wall with an anchor delivery system and delivery cable. A second delivery system introduces a tether which coupled to the implanted anchor and an atrial sealing skirt. The atrial sealing skirt includes a top brim which is positioned to conform to the atrial floor at the deployment site. The sealing skirt may be integrated with a valve or serve as a receptacle.
