Abstract
In some examples, a delivery device includes a handle, a catheter sheath defining a lumen and extending distally from the handle, the catheter sheath having a deflectable proximal curve and a deflectable distal curve spaced from the deflectable proximal curve, one or more coextruded stripes disposed at the deflectable distal curve, at least one pull ring formed within the catheter sheath, one or more pull wires coupled to the at least one pull ring, and a first deflection knob for actuating the catheter sheath at the deflectable proximal curve and a second deflection knob for actuating the catheter sheath at the deflectable distal curve.
