Abstract

See full text

A method of implanting a replacement mitral valve can include expanding a replacement mitral valve to a first expanded configuration. The replacement mitral valve can include a force-expanding mitral valve lattice and a self-expanding valve trampoline lattice. The mitral valve lattice has an inflow end portion and an outflow end portion, and the valve trampoline lattice is attached to the outflow end portion of the mitral valve lattice. The method can also include rotating a plurality of jack screws connected to the mitral valve lattice. The jack screws can be configured to expand the mitral valve lattice from the first expanded configuration to a second expanded configuration.
