Abstract

An implantable device or implant includes an anchor portion comprising one or more anchors. The anchors are configured to attach to one or more leaflets of a native heart valve. The anchors are configured to move between an open position and a closed position. The device or implant includes an indication feature that is movable between an allowable tension position and an exceeded tension position. When the anchors are attached to the leaflets of the native heart valve, the indication feature indicates to a user when an amount of force applied to the anchor portion by the leaflets of the native heart valve exceeds a pre-set or predetermined amount of force.
