At least one exemplary embodiment is directed to an earpiece having a swappable inflatable tip.

A prosthetic heart valve has a radially expandable and collapsible annular frame, the frame having an inflow end and an outflow end and defining a longitudinal axis along a lumen of the prosthetic heart valve when it is in the expanded configuration. A leaflet structure is positioned within the frame and secured thereto. The prosthetic heart valve also has a laminate sealing member including a plurality of layers heat-bonded together to encapsulate at least a portion of the frame. The laminate sealing member extends along the longitudinal axis in an upstream direction and doubles back toward the outflow end of the frame at a fold line to form a cuff, and an edge portion of the laminate sealing member is secured to a main portion of the laminate sealing member downstream of the fold line such that the cuff forms an inflow end of the laminate sealing member.
