Valve prosthesis
By using the spacing between the inner and outer stent layers and the connection of elastic components, the problem of excessive compression of the valve leaflets during cardiac motion is solved, thus improving the structural stability of the valve prosthesis and the protection of the valve leaflet assembly.

AI Technical Summary
In existing valve prostheses, the leaflets inside the valve prosthesis are easily deformed by excessive compression during the movement of the heart, leading to structural damage.
By using an alternating arrangement of inner and outer supports, combined with the connection method of elastic elements, there is a certain deformation space between the outer and inner supports. The elastic elements counteract the deformation force of the outer supports through elastic deformation, thereby reducing stress concentration at the connection nodes.
It reduces the risk of fracture at the connection point between the outer and inner stents, improves the structural stability and radial support of the valve prosthesis, and reduces the impact of leaflet assembly deformation.
