发明名称 CARDIAC VALVE PROCEDURE METHODS AND DEVICES
摘要 Devices and methods for performing intrvenous vascular procedures without cardiac bypass. The devices include various embodiments of temporary filter devices (10), temporary valves (26, 100), and prosthetic valves (80, 85, 86, 90). The temporary filter devices (10) have one or more cannulae (2) which provide access for surgical tools for effecting repair of the cardiac valves . A cannula (2) may have filters (3) of various configurations encircling the distal region of the cannula, which prevents embolism material from entering the coronary arteries, and aorta. In one embodiment, a set of valve leaflets (70, 71) extend peripherally from the filter to prevent blood flow through peripheral arteries. The temporary valve devices (26) may also have one or more cannulae (2') which guide insertion of the valve into the aorta. The valve devices (26) expand in the aorta to occupy the entire flow path of the vessel. In one embodiment, the temporary valve (26) is a disc of flexible, porous material that acts to filter blood passing therethrough. In another embodiment, the temporary valve (100) has leaflets (111) which act in concer t to alternately block or allow blood flow.
