Contraception methods, systems, and devices generally improve the ease, speed and reliability with which a contraceptive device (12) can be deployed transcervically into an ostium of a fallopian tube. The contraceptive device (12) may remain in a small profile configuration while a sheath (14) is withdrawn proximally, and is thereafter expanded to a large profile configuration engaging the surrounding tissues, by manipulating one or more actuators of a proximal handle (30) with a single hand. This leaves the other hand free to manipulate a hysteroscope, minimizing the number of health care professional required to deploy the contraceptive device (12).

L'invention concerne des procédés, systèmes et dispositifs de contraception qui, généralement, augmentent la facilité, la rapidité et la fiabilité de déploiement d'un dispositif (12) de contraception de manière transcervicale à l'intérieur d'un ostium d'une trompe de fallope. Le dispositif (12) de contraception peut conserver une forme à profil mince, une gaine (14) étant retirée de manière proximale. Il est ensuite dilaté de façon à lui donner une forme à grand profil, mettant en prise les tissus environnants, par la manipulation, d'une seule main, d'au moins un actionneur d'une poignée proximale (30). L'autre main, libre, peut manipuler un hystéroscope, ce qui permet de réduire le nombre d'interventions de professionnels de soins de santé nécessaire pour déployer le dispositif de contraception (12).
