TISSUE ANCHOR

A tissue anchor delivery system includes an elongate shaft and a tissue anchor magazine coupled to the elongate shaft. The delivery system includes a plurality of tissue anchors arranged sequentially within the tissue anchor magazine in a first, pre-deployed configuration. An actuation assembly is configured to deploy a leading one of the tissue anchors in a distal direction from the distal end of the elongate shaft, wherein upon deployment, the deployed tissue anchor transitions from the first, pre-deployed configuration to a second, deployed configuration. Each of the tissue anchors including a tab positioned near the proximal end of the anchor body and a barb positioned near the distal end of the anchor body. The tab and the barb may move relative to the anchor body between the pre-deployed configuration and the deployed configuration.
