摘要:
A crimping device for a prosthetic heart valve can comprise an annular outer frame and an inner frame extending through the outer frame, the inner frame comprising first and second axial end portions and a plurality of jaw guides extending therebetween, where the inner frame defines a central opening extending therethrough. The crimping device can comprise a plurality of jaws operatively coupled to the inner and outer frames, each jaw having an inner portion positioned within the central opening of the inner frame and an engagement portion configured to slide along a respective jaw guide, each jaw guide comprising an inclined guiderail extending between the first and second axial end portions. Relative axial motion between the outer and inner frames causes radial motion of the jaws for crimping a prosthetic device positioned within the central opening.
