Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Various mechanically expandable prosthetic heart valves, as well as deliver apparatus, delivery assemblies, and methods for implanting such prosthetic heart valves. In one example, a prosthetic heart valve includes a mechanically expandable frame, a valve structure, and an actuator. The frame includes a plurality of struts and is movable between a radially compressed state and a radially expanded state. The valve structure includes a plurality of leaflets. The actuator is coupled to the frame and comprises an actuation lumen, a locking member, and a locking element. The actuation lumen is circumferentially spaced and axially parallel to the locking member. The actuation lumen is configured for receiving an axially movable actuation shaft that can move the frame between the radially compressed state and the radially expanded state. The locking element is rotatably coupled to the locking member and is configured to lock the frame at a desired state.
