US Patent 11672658 Prosthetic valve with aligned inner and outer frames

Prosthetic heart valves and methods of use of prosthetic heart valves may be provided. In one implementation, a prosthetic heart valve configured to transition between radially compressed and radially expanded configurations may be provided. The prosthetic heart valve may include an outer frame, an inner frame, and at least one tissue anchor extending from at least one of the frames. The prosthetic heart valve may be configured to maintain a first distance between the downstream ends of the inner and outer frames when the prosthetic heart valve is in the radially compressed configuration and a second distance between the downstream ends of the inner and outer frames when the prosthetic heart valve is in the radially expanded configuration, the first distance being greater than the second distance.
