Patent

CA 2520688

In accordance with the present invention there is provided an applier for a surgical device and method that gives the surgeon improved control when applying the device. The applier includes an enclosure to constrain the device, a cover on the end of the enclosure, a restraining element to prevent proximal movement of the device while the enclosure moves proximally, and a force element connecting the cover to the enclosure. The force element causes the cover and enclosure to retract proximally as one unit, but has enough flexibility to allow the cover to lift off of the enclosure when a second force larger than that generated by the force element is placed on the cover to urge it distally. The force element places a force at a distal end of the surgical device as the applier ejects the surgical device.
