More Information
Summary:A delivery device usable to deliver an inverting implant is provided that includes a positioning mechanism that automatically initiates the inversion process once a predetermined length of the implant has exited a delivery catheter. The positioning mechanism allows the implant to be safely and accurately deployed with reduced operator experience and in a greater variety of target locations. L'invention concerne un dispositif de pose convenant pour la pose d'un implant par inversion. Ce dispositif comprend un mécanisme de positionnement qui démarre automatiquement le processus d'inversion une fois qu'une longueur prédéterminé de l'implant a quitté le cathéter de pose. Grâce au dispositif de positionnement, l'implant peut être déployé de manière sûre et précise, même par un opérateur n'ayant qu'une expérience limitée, dans une plus grande variété de sites.
