Filtered sealing components for a transcatheter valve prosthesis

A transcatheter valve prosthesis comprising:

• a stent having a compressed configuration for delivery within a vasculature and an expanded configuration for deployment within a native heart valve;
• a prosthetic valve component disposed within and secured to the stent;
• a skirt coupled to an exterior of the stent, the skirt having a first edge coupled to the stent and an opposing second edge not coupled to the stent to form a pocket having an open end between the second edge of the skirt and the exterior of the stent;
• and
• a filter coupled to the skirt and the exterior of the stent, the filter extending over the open end of the pocket, wherein the filter is configured to permit blood flow there-through and to trap emboli in the blood flow within the pocket.

A transcatheter valve prosthesis comprising:

• a stent having a compressed configuration for delivery within a vasculature and an expanded configuration for deployment within a native heart valve;
• a prosthetic valve component disposed within and secured to the stent;
• a compartment coupled to the stent, wherein the compartment is formed from a mesh;
• and
• a coating selectively applied to the mesh to form a solid portion and a filter portion, wherein the solid portion does not allow blood flow there-through and the filter portion is configured to permit blood flow there-through and to trap emboli in the blood flow within the compartment.
