Method for delivering an occlusion plug

A method for compressing a plug (1) of a device for delivering the plug (1) in a vessel (2) in a human or animal body, with an inserter (3) fitted with a guiding channel (4) and a pushing device that pushes the plug (1) into the channel (4), wherein said channel (4) is configured to compress radially the plug (1) during the displacement thereof towards the distal end of the channel (4) and the pushing device comprises at least two telescopic rods (9) located in the channel, one of which slides in the other and each of the at least two telescopic rods exercising direct mechanical pressure on the plug, the method comprising:

• introducing the plug (1) at the proximal end of a movable tip (7) into a channel (4);
• connecting the movable tip (7) to a device (15) comprising compression means;
• exercising longitudinal pressure on the movable tip (7) to introduce the compression means into the channel (4) and push the plug (1) towards the distal end of the channel (4);
• disconnecting the movable tip (7) from the device (15);
• connecting the movable tip (7) to an inserter (3) comprising terminal means for pushing (5);
• and
• activating the terminal means for pushing (5) to displace the plug (1) towards the distal end of channel (4).
