Abstract
A cardiac valve repair implant, wherein the implant includes a central occluder, and frame and a thin sheet. The central occluder includes a central longitudinal axis. The frame extends proximally from the central occluder and is centered about and forms a circumference around the central longitudinal axis of the central occluder. The frame self-biases from a collapsed state to an expanded state. A proximal end of the frame projects proximally when the frame is in the collapsed state. The proximal end of the frame projects radially outward away from the central longitudinal axis of the central occluder when the frame is in the expanded state. The thin sheet is supported on a proximal portion of the frame. When the frame is in the expanded state, the thin sheet forms an annular surface defining an inner circular opening centered about the central longitudinal axis of the central occluder.
