Abstract
A clip (100, 200, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200) for repairing a cardiac valve includes an elongated body (102, 202, 902, 1132, 1202, 1302) and a locking mechanism (110, 1110, 1210, 1310). The elongated body has first and second ends and is adapted to change between an open condition and a closed condition. The locking mechanism is adapted to lock the elongated body in the closed condition. The locking mechanism may include interengaging teeth (116, 118; 212, 214) on the first end (1104, 1204, 1304) and second end (1106, 1206, 1306) of the body. Alternatively, the locking mechanism may include a return (1121, 1212, 1312) on the first end of the body sized to overlap with the second end of the body in the closed condition.
