Claim Text:
1. A system that effects the condition of a mitral valve annulus of a heart comprising: an elongate body comprising a distal expandable anchor, the distal expandable anchor adapted to be collapsed into an unlocked delivery configuration for delivery into a coronary sinus; a lock adapted to lock the distal expandable anchor in an expanded configuration in the coronary sinus, the expanded configuration having a first height that is greater than a second height of the distal expandable anchor when the distal expandable anchor is in the unlocked delivery configuration, and wherein the distal expandable anchor is configured to receive an actuation force thereon to lock the distal expandable anchor in the expanded configuration; a delivery member that is adapted to apply the actuation force on the distal expandable anchor to lock the distal expandable anchor in the expanded configuration, wherein the distal expandable anchor is further configured to be, after being locked in the expanded configuration, collapsed in response to a further actuation force from the delivery member without unlocking the lock; and a proximal anchor disposed proximal to the distal expandable anchor and spaced from the distal expandable anchor such that the proximal anchor and the distal expandable anchor are both anchorable in the coronary sinus, the proximal anchor and the distal expandable anchor configured to be anchorable in the coronary sinus.
