摘要 |
A stent delivery system includes an inner tubular member on which a stmt is loaded, an outer jacket extending over said inner tubular member, the retraction of which causes deployment of the stmt, and a handle adapted to move the jacket relative to the inner tubular member. The constructions of the inner tubular member and outer jacket and the handle provide increased control of the relative movement of the outer jacket relative to the inner tubular member, and prevention of premature release of the stmt from the deployment instrument, and greater control over stmt deployment among other advantages. |
