VENTRICULAR REMODELING USING COIL DEVICES

Abstract:

A method for treating a heart valve involves introducing a delivery catheter into a target ventricle of a heart, the delivery catheter having a coil device disposed at least partially therein, deploying a distal end of the coil device from the delivery catheter, navigating the distal end of the coil device behind a plurality of trabeculae carneae features associated with an inner wall of the ventricle to form one or more coils, and tightening the one or more coils to reduce a diameter of the target ventricle.
