Summary:A method for delivering an implant including, a catheter having a shaft defined by a proximal end and a distal end and a bore extending therethrough; a first joint in the shaft, and a second joint in the shaft located distal of the first joint. The first joint and the second joint are separated by a first digit sized to receive the implant and located between the first joint and the second joint. The second joint and the distal end are separated by a second digit being sized to receive the implant. The implant is advanced through the first digit and into the second digit without bending the implant or the first and second digits by rotating the digits at the first joint and the second joint.
