Abstract

See full text

Prosthetic valve introducer systems and methods for deploying a heart valve prosthesis within a body lumen are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the valve introducer can include a delivery shaft to house a prosthetic valve and a distal tip, and a deployment element to push a prosthetic valve out of the distal tip of the delivery shaft. The valve introducer can include at least one finger gripping element. The delivery shaft can be inserted into a body lumen and advanced to a desired deployment location. In certain embodiments, the prosthetic valve can be deployed by pushing the deployment element in a distal direction, thereby pushing the prosthetic valve out of the distal tip of the delivery shaft.
