More Information
Summary:Valve repair systems and clips attachable to one or more leaflets of a heart valve. The systems and clips can have center member, first and second clipping arms, and a tubular member. The first and second clipping arms are movable between an open position and a closed position. The clipping arms including respective first end portions coupled together and respective second end portions extendable axially and radially outward. The tubular member is disposed about the first end portion of the center member and first end portions of the first and second clipping arms. Axial motion of the tubular member relative to the center member or axial motion of the center member relative to the tubular member causes corresponding movement of the clipping arms between the open and closed positions. Other implementations are also disclosed.
