Abstract

The invention relates in some aspects to a device for use in anchoring an implant, including anchors, sutures, implants, clips, tools, lassos, and methods of anchoring among other methods. Anchors as disclosed herein could be utilized to secure a coaptation assistance device, an annuloplasty ring, an artificial valve, cardiac patch, sensor, pacemaker, or other implants. The implant could be a mitral valve ring or artificial mitral valve in some embodiments.

Claims (28)

1 . A system comprising:

a primary anchor comprising a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the distal end is configured to be driven into tissue, wherein the primary anchor comprises a helix,

a coaptation assistance device comprising a support structure comprising three or more supports extending through at least a portion of the coaptation assistance device, wherein the three or more supports are directly connected with a tubular extension, wherein the tubular extension extends upward from the three or more supports, wherein the primary anchor is configured to extend through the tubular extension so as to be configured to secure the coaptation assistance device to an annulus, wherein the coaptation assistance device comprises a superior edge configured to overlie the annulus, an inferior edge configured to extend toward the ventricle, and lateral edges extending between the superior edge and the inferior edge, wherein the coaptation assistance device comprises a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are bound by the superior edge, the inferior edge, the lateral edges, wherein the coaptation assistance device is configured to cross a plane of a heart valve, wherein the coaptation assistance device is configured to overlie a posterior leaflet, wherein the coaptation assistance device and an anterior leaflet are configured to provide closure or sealing of the valve,

at least one secondary anchor separate and spaced apart from the tubular extension and the primary anchor, wherein the one or more secondary anchors extend distally from the coaptation assistance device so as to be configured to engage the annulus.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the tubular extension comprises a cross pin.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the support structure comprises a shape memory material.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the support structure is configured to maintain the shape and functionality of the coaptation assistance device.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the lateral edges taper inward from the superior edge to the inferior edge.

6 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising an anchor driver.

7 . The system of claim 6 , wherein the anchor driver comprises a housing and a torque shaft.

8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more secondary anchors comprise a helix.

9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more secondary anchors are configured to secure the coaptation assistance device to the annulus.

10 . A system comprising:

a primary anchor comprising a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the distal end is configured to be driven into tissue,

a coaptation assistance device comprising a support structure comprising a first support and a second support, wherein the tubular extension extends upward from the first support and the second support, wherein the primary anchor is configured to secure the coaptation assistance device to an annulus, wherein the coaptation assistance device comprises a superior edge, an inferior edge, and lateral edges extending between the superior edge and the inferior edge, wherein the coaptation assistance device comprises a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are bound by the superior edge, the inferior edge, the lateral edges, wherein the coaptation assistance device is configured to provide a new coaptation surface for an anterior leaflet to coapt against, wherein the first support extends between the superior edge and the inferior edge, wherein the second support extends between the lateral edges, wherein the first support and the second support are a unitary structure with the tubular extension,

a first secondary anchor and a second secondary anchor, wherein the first secondary anchor and the second secondary anchor are spaced apart from the tubular extension and the primary anchor, the first secondary anchor positioned on a first side of the tubular extension and the primary anchor, the second secondary anchor positioned on a second side of the tubular extension and the primary anchor, wherein the first secondary anchor and the second secondary anchor are configured to secure the coaptation assistance device to the annulus.

11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the support structure comprises a shape memory material.

12 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the coaptation assistance device is configured to improve leaflet coaptation of a cardiac valve.

13 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the primary anchor comprises a helix.

14 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the first secondary anchor comprises a helix, and wherein the second secondary anchor comprises a helix.

15 . A system comprising:

a primary anchor comprising a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the distal end is configured to be driven into tissue,

a coaptation assistance device comprising a support structure comprising a first support, a second support, and a third support, wherein the tubular extension extends upward from the first support, the second support, and the third support, wherein the first support, the second support, the third support, and the tubular extension are integrally formed, wherein the primary anchor is configured to secure the coaptation assistance device to an annulus, wherein the coaptation assistance device comprises a superior edge, an inferior edge, and lateral edges extending between the superior edge and the inferior edge, wherein the coaptation assistance device comprising a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are bound by the superior edge, the inferior edge, the lateral edges, wherein the coaptation assistance device is configured to overlie a posterior leaflet,

at least one secondary anchor spaced apart from the tubular extension and the primary anchor, wherein the one or more secondary anchors are positioned laterally from the primary anchor.

16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the lateral edges taper inward such that the coaptation assistance device is generally triangular.

17 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the first support of the support structure extends from the tubular extension toward the inferior edge.

18 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the second support of the support structure extends from the tubular extension toward one lateral edge of the lateral edges.

19 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the one or more secondary anchors comprise a different configuration than the primary anchor.
