摘要:
An implant is provided that includes first and second tissue anchors, which include (a) first and second tissue-coupling elements, respectively, and (b) first and second heads, respectively, which include first and second tether interfaces and one or more tethers, which are connected to the first tether interface, and coupled to the second tether interface. The first and second tissue anchors are removably positioned in a catheter shaft of a multiple-anchor delivery tool at first and second longitudinal locations, respectively, the first longitudinal location more distal than the second longitudinal location. First and second torque cables of the delivery tool (a) are removably coupled to the first and second heads, respectively, (b) extend within the catheter shaft proximally from the first and second heads, respectively, and (c) transmit torque when rotated. A portion of the first torque cable is removably positioned alongside the second tissue anchor in the catheter shaft.
