The first anchor is configured to capture a first native valve leaflet between the first anchor and the spacer body. The second anchor is configured to capture a second native valve leaflet between the second anchor and the spacer body. When inside a delivery sheath, the first anchor and the second anchor can extend distally from the spacer body.
