Systems and methods for microvascular anastomotic coupler ring delivery device

A device, comprising:

• an elongated body including a proximal portion, and an inner rod portion in coaxial alignment with an outer sheath portion collectively defining a carriage slot therebetween;
• a carriage at least partially encapsulated within the carriage slot of the elongated body and defining a proximal portion and a distal portion, wherein the distal portion of the carriage includes a first wedge and an opposite second wedge;
• an actuator in association with the proximal portion of the elongated body and the proximal portion of the carriage, wherein the actuator is operable to actuate the carriage in a second axial direction;
• and
• a pair of coupling arms in association with the distal portion of the elongated body, wherein each coupling arm of the pair of coupling arms includes a free end and a pivotable end, wherein the pivotable end includes a lower post such that the coupling arm is operable to pivot about the lower post, and wherein the lower post is associated with the distal portion of the elongated body;
• wherein the actuator is operable to actuate the carriage in the second axial direction such that the free end of a first coupling arm of the pair of coupling arms is drawn towards a free end of a second coupling arm of the pair of coupling arms in a closed configuration as the first wedge and the opposite second wedge of the carriage are actuated in the second axial direction.
