Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of transcatheterly delivering a band to encircle multiple papillary muscles in a heart. The method may comprise transcutaneously inserting a catheter into a heart and delivering a first end of a first guidewire to a ventricle in the heart via the catheter. The method may further comprise looping a first end of a first guidewire around a first papillary muscle and a second end of a second guidewire around a second papillary muscle. The first end of the first guidewire and the second end of the second guidewire may be brought out of the body while the first and second guidewires remain looped around the first and second papillary muscles, respectively. The first and second guidewires may be interconnected, and at least one end of the first and second guidewires may be pulled to establish a single loop around the papillary muscles.

Claim (Index 37):
The method of  claim 33 , wherein looping the at least one guidewire around the plurality of papillary muscles in the ventricle includes:\n passing the at least one guidewire through a steerable catheter; and modifying a shape of the steerable catheter around the plurality of papillary muscles, thereby looping the guidewire around the plurality of papillary muscles.
