Abstract
An apparatus includes a hemostasis valve; a base having a clamp releasably coupling a catheter to the base; a base drive member moving the base relative to the hemostasis valve along a first path; and a mechanism maintaining the position of an elongated medical device relative to the hemostasis valve while the catheter is being moved along the first path.
Claims28
An apparatus comprising:
- a hemostasis valve to receive a portion of a catheter defining a lumen;
- a base comprising a device to releasably hold the catheter to the base;
- a base drive member to move the base relative to the hemostasis valve along a first path while the catheter is held to the base such that the catheter moves relative to the hemostasis valve;
- and
- a mechanism coupled to the base to maintain a position of an elongated medical device removably positioned within the lumen relative to the hemostasis valve while the base and the mechanism are moved along the first path and the catheter is held to the base.

An apparatus comprising:
- a hemostasis valve to receive a portion of a catheter, wherein the catheter defines a lumen and an elongated medical device is positioned within the lumen;
- a base comprising a device to hold the catheter to the base;
- a base drive member to move the base relative to the hemostasis valve while the catheter is held to the base such that the catheter moves linearly relative to the hemostasis valve;
- and
- a mechanism coupled to the base to maintain a position of the elongated medical device relative to the hemostasis valve while the base and the mechanism are moved relative to the hemostasis valve and the catheter is held to the base.
