Estimating the term…
A delivery and deployment system having a control handle operable to deliver and/or deploy an implantable device, e.g., transluminally. A steering control system may include a steering control knob rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the handle to axially pull on a steering element to steer a flexible elongate member to deliver an implantable device to a desired site. An implantable device deployment system may include a slider selectively slidable with respect to the control handle to deploy an implantable device, and optionally to retain the implantable device in a delivery position. A tether adjustment system may include a knob rotatable about the handle's longitudinal axis to axially pull on a tether element to adjust the tension and/or length thereof. A tensioning and locking system may include a knob rotatable about the handle's longitudinal axis to shift a tensioning and locking device to set the tether element's tension and/or length.
A delivery and deployment system for delivering and/or deploying an implantable device to an anatomical site, said delivery and deployment system comprising:
A delivery and deployment system for delivering and/or deploying an implantable device to an anatomical site, said delivery and deployment system comprising a control handle having a longitudinal axis and comprising at least one control knob rotatable about the longitudinal axis of said control handle and operable to axially translate a component of said delivery and deployment system.
A method of delivering and/or deploying an implantable device transluminally, said method comprising:
