Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein are prosthetic valve devices, systems, and methods of installation of prosthetic valve devices and systems in a target region of a subject. Prosthetic valve devices disclosed herein comprise a frame structure having expanded and unexpanded configurations aiding in minimally-invasive delivery of the devices to the target region. The prosthetic valve devices include frame structures designed to minimize the amount of material used to form the devices without sacrificing structural strength. The prosthetic valve devices also include frame structures of minimal longitudinal length, allowing easier and more precise delivery and deployment of the devices.
