Research output: Patent

Abstract

Methods and device for repairing a cardiac valve. A minimally invasive procedure includes creating an access in the apex region of the heart through which the invented device is implanted. The device can implant artificial heart valve chordae tendineae into cardiac valve leaflet tissues to restore proper leaflet function and prevent reperfusion. The device punctures the apex of the heart and travels through the ventricle. The tip of the device rests on the defective valve and punctures the valve leaflet. A suture is inserted, securing the top of the leaflet to the apex of the heart and eliminates the valve regurgitation.
