Abstract
A valve insertable into a body lumen includes a body region extending in a distal direction away from a proximal rim. The proximal rim defines an outer perimeter of the valve at a proximal end of the valve. The body region forms a first leaflet and a second leaflet, with the first leaflet in contact with the second leaflet to provide the valve with a closed position. The first leaflet includes a first segment in contact with the proximal rim and a second segment in contact with the second leaflet. The first segment is curved to include a convex exterior surface and a concave interior surface of the valve. The second segment is curved to include a concave exterior surface and a convex interior surface of the valve.
