A delivery system (10) for implantation of a medical device in a body lumen consists of an elongate flexible catheter ( 12) for delivering the medical device (16) to a predetermined location in a lumen. The medical device surrounds the flexible catheter near its distal end and is held in a delivery configuration where the medical device has a reduced radius along its axial length by a storage sleeve (18). The storage sleeve surrounds the medical device. Where the catheter has an outer sleeve (14) the storage sleeve not only provides a means for retaining the medical device in its delivery configuration, but also protects the outer sleeve from creep during storage and/or elevated temperature conditions. The storage sleeve is removed from the system prior to use.
L'invention concerne un système (10) de mise en place utilisé pour implanter un dispositif médical dans la lumière d'un corps. Ledit système comprend un cathéter (12) flexible allongé destiné à mettre en place le dispositif médical (16) dans un endroit préétabli d'une lumière. Ledit dispositif médical entoure le cathéter flexible près de son extrémité distale et est maintenu en position de mise en place à l'endroit où ledit dispositif médical a un rayon réduit le long de sa longueur axiale par un manchon (18) de stockage. Ce dernier entoure ledit dispositif médical. Là où le cathéter a un manchon (14) extérieur, le manchon de stockage est muni d'un mécanisme permettant de retenir ledit dispositif médical dans sa position de mise en place tout en empêchant le manchon extérieur de glisser pendant le stockage et/ou à des températures élevées. Le manchon de stockage est retiré du système avant utilisation.
