Abstract:
1. A method of deploying a ventricular partitioning device comprising: advancing a ventricular partitioning device having a membrane into a patient's left ventricle chamber in a contracted configuration; expanding the partitioning device into a deployed configuration at a first left ventricle location; at least partially collapsing the partitioning device into the contracted configuration; withdrawing the partitioning device from the first left ventricle location; and repositioning the partitioning device within the left ventricle and expanding the partitioning device into the deployed configuration at a second left ventricle location so that the partitioning device partitions the left ventricle chamber into a main productive portion of the left ventricular chamber and a secondary, non-productive portion of the left ventricular chamber.
