Abstract
A prosthetic valve including an inner frame, an outer frame, and a connection assembly interconnecting the frames. The inner frame defines an interior volume for receiving a valve structure within the interior volume. The outer frame surrounds the inner frame. The inner and outer frames are each configured to be transitionable between compressed and expanded conditions. The prosthetic heart valve provides a initial deployed state in which the inner and outer frames are in the expanded condition, and a radial shape of the outer frame is adjustable via the connection assembly to a final deployed state. A shape of the outer frame can be adjusted upon implant to enable radial anchoring at the native annulus, while addressing possible non-uniformities of the native annulus and possible anatomical concerns such as LVOT obstruction.
