An embolic protection device for insertion into an aortic arch, comprising:
- a frame having a proximal portion and a distal portion, the distal portion of the frame comprising a distal shape, the distal shape formed to extend inwards in a proximal direction of the frame;
- a filter arranged on the frame, a distal portion of the filter folded over an edge of the distal portion of the frame to an opposite side of the frame and extending onto the distal shape;
- and
- a feed unit permanently coupled to the proximal portion of the frame.
