Prosthetic heart valve with anchoring protrusion for secure implantation
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11969163B2) discloses a prosthetic heart valve comprising an annular spacer and a central valve section. The annular spacer includes a cylindrical skirt with a spacer opening and a disc-shaped wall, while the central valve section has a hollow body to support a valve prosthesis and anchoring protrusions to prevent axial movement relative to the spacer. The design allows the central valve section to expand radially within the heart and move into the spacer opening, ensuring secure placement within the native heart valve. Additionally, the cylindrical skirt can be inverted post-deployment to optimize positioning within the heart.
Furthermore, the patent details various configurations and features of the prosthetic heart valve, such as the positioning of the disc-shaped wall, anchoring protrusions, and extension into the heart's ventricle. The central valve section is designed with a flexible wire frame and strut junctions to enhance stability and prevent migration within the annular spacer. The innovative design also includes a support stent with a covering to obstruct blood flow, ensuring efficient valve function. With a focus on secure deployment and optimal positioning within the heart, this prosthetic heart valve design offers promising advancements in the field of cardiac care and treatment of heart valve conditions.
