摘要:
In some embodiments, a method of ameliorating diastolic dysfunction may include positioning at least a distal end of a system for cutting a trabeculae carneae in a left ventricle of a human heart. The system may include an elongated member, a grip, an engaging portion, and a cutting device. A second end of the engaging portion may turn in upon the engaging portion towards a first end of the engaging portion while still allowing trabeculae carneae to enter through an opening between the first and second ends. The cutting device may be positioned within an inner diameter of the engaging portion. The method may include positioning at least one trabeculae carneae in the inner diameter of the engaging portion. The method may include severing the at least one trabeculae carneae. The method may include increasing left ventricular compliance of the human heart.
