This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18907484 titled 'PROSTHETIC VALVES FOR DEPLOYMENT
Original Abstract Submitted
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for prosthetic valves. The prosthetic valves disclosed herein may be utilized for improved deployment, sealing, and anchoring to an implantation site. An implantation site may comprise a native heart valve or another implantation site in examples. Examples of prosthetic valves may include a proximal tensioning body positioned at a proximal portion of the prosthetic valve and a distal tensioning body positioned at a distal portion of the prosthetic valve. A sealing skirt may have a proximal end portion coupled to the proximal tensioning body and a distal end portion coupled to the distal tensioning body. The sealing skirt may be tensioned by the proximal tensioning body and the distal tensioning body and deflectable to conform to a shape of the native valve.
