A prosthetic heart valve, comprising: a stent having a collapsed condition and an expanded condition and extending from an inflow end to an outflow end, the stent including: a first circumferential row of cells defined by a first plurality of struts; a second circumferential row of cells defined by a second plurality of struts, the second circumferential row being positioned closer to the outflow end of the stent than the first circumferential row, at least one cell in the second circumferential row including a first strut opposed to a fourth strut and a second strut opposed to a third strut, the first and fourth struts (S1, S4) being connected to the second and third struts (S2, S3); a bridging feature in at least one cell in the second circumferential row, the bridging feature including a first supplemental strut having a first end and a second end, and a second supplemental strut having a first end and a second end, the first end of the first supplemental strut being attached to at least one of the first and third struts (S1, S3), the second end of the first supplemental strut being attached to the first end of the second supplemental strut, and the second end of the second supplemental strut being attached to at least one of the second and fourth struts (S2, S4); and a cuff having an inflow end and an outflow end, the outflow end of the cuff being coupled to the stent along the bridging feature, characterized in that at least two adjacent cells in a first group of cells in the second circumferential row include the bridging feature and at least two adjacent cells in a second group of cells in the second circumferential row include the bridging feature, the first group of cells and the second group of cells being separated by at least one cell in the second circumferential row without the bridging feature. a stent having a collapsed condition and an expanded condition and extending from an inflow end to an outflow end, the stent including: a first circumferential row of cells defined by a first plurality of struts; a second circumferential row of cells defined by a second plurality of struts, the second circumferential row being positioned closer to the outflow end of the stent than the first circumferential row, at least one cell in the second circumferential row including a first strut opposed to a fourth strut and a second strut opposed to a third strut, the first and fourth struts (S1, S4) being connected to the second and third struts (S2, S3); a bridging feature in at least one cell in the second circumferential row, the bridging feature including a first supplemental strut having a first end and a second end, and a second supplemental strut having a first end and a second end, the first end of the first supplemental strut being attached to at least one of the first and third struts (S1, S3), the second end of the first supplemental strut being attached to the first end of the second supplemental strut, and the second end of the second supplemental strut being attached to at least one of the second and fourth struts (S2, S4); and a first circumferential row of cells defined by a first plurality of struts; a second circumferential row of cells defined by a second plurality of struts, the second circumferential row being positioned closer to the outflow end of the stent than the first circumferential row, at least one cell in the second circumferential row including a first strut opposed to a fourth strut and a second strut opposed to a third strut, the first and fourth struts (S1, S4) being connected to the second and third struts (S2, S3); a bridging feature in at least one cell in the second circumferential row, the bridging feature including a first supplemental strut having a first end and a second end, and a second supplemental strut having a first end and a second end, the first end of the first supplemental strut being attached to at least one of the first and third struts (S1, S3), the second end of the first supplemental strut being attached to the first end of the second supplemental strut, and the second end of the second supplemental strut being attached to at least one of the second and fourth struts (S2, S4); and a cuff having an inflow end and an outflow end, the outflow end of the cuff being coupled to the stent along the bridging feature, characterized in that at least two adjacent cells in a first group of cells in the second circumferential row include the bridging feature and at least two adjacent cells in a second group of cells in the second circumferential row include the bridging feature, the first group of cells and the second group of cells being separated by at least one cell in the second circumferential row without the bridging feature.
