STENT DELIVERY HANDLE AND ASSEMBLY FORMED THEREWITH

摘要

A delivery handle and assembly are provided which allow for deployment and reconstrainment of a stent. The delivery assembly may include a catheter having a lumen extending therethrough; and, a housing having an aperture, the catheter extending through the aperture. A driver is movably coupled to the housing such that the driver can selectively move in different first and second directions relative to the housing. The driver is disposed to engage the catheter such that movement of the driver in the first direction causes a distal end of the catheter to move distally, and that movement of the driver in the second direction causes the distal end of the catheter to move proximally.
