Abstract:
A method of crimping an implantable prosthetic valve can include placing protective material over at least a portion of the implantable prosthetic valve. The protective material can be configured to occupy space between open cells of a frame of the implantable prosthetic valve to prevent damage to a leaflet structure of the implantable prosthetic valve. The method can also include crimping the implantable prosthetic valve with the protective material on the implantable prosthetic valve, and removing the protective material from between the frame and the leaflet structure of the implantable prosthetic valve.

Claim (Index 17):
The assembly of  claim 13 , wherein each U-shaped crown structure comprises two vertical portions and a lateral portion extending between the two vertical portions, wherein the vertical portions are parallel to a central longitudinal axis of the prosthetic heart valve, wherein the lateral portion extends between and interconnects ends of the vertical portions, and wherein the vertical portions are spaced apart from each other to define a gap between the ends of a corresponding pair of adjacent struts.
