Uncoupled LAA device

A medical device to treat the LAA, the medical device having a deployed state and a confined state, the medical device comprising:

• a cap, a bulb and a joint assembly therebetween;
• the cap having a plurality of layers, the plurality of layers comprising a base layer, a petal layer and a securement layer, the securement layer being immediately adjacent to an engagement hub, a portion of the engagement hub extending through an opening defined by each of the layers to secure each of the layers to one another to form the cap, a plurality of proximal wire loops extending from the cap to a proximal post of the joint assembly;
• the bulb having a plurality of distal wire loops that extend between a terminal post and a distal post of the joint assembly, adjacent distal wire loops being connected one to another by at least one connection collar;
• the joint assembly comprising a first ball joint, a second ball joint and a housing, the proximal post extending proximally from the first ball joint, the distal post extending distally from the second ball joint, the housing having a proximal collar and a distal collar, the proximal collar retaining the first ball joint in a first ball and socket relationship, the distal collar retaining the second ball joint in a second ball and socket relationship;
• the housing having a housing longitudinal axis extending therethrough, a proximal longitudinal axis extending through the first ball joint and the proximal post, a distal longitudinal axis extending through the second ball joint and the distal post, the first ball and socket relationship allowing the proximal longitudinal axis to form an angle of between about 0 to about 35 degrees with the housing longitudinal axis in any direction, the second ball and socket relationship allowing the distal longitudinal axis to form an angle of between about 0 to about 35 degrees with the housing longitudinal axis in any direction.
