MEDICAL DEVICES AND DELIVERY SYSTEMS FOR DELIVERING MEDICAL DEVICES
Medical devices and delivery systems for delivering medical devices to a target location within a subject. In some embodiments the medical devices can be locked in a fully deployed and locked configuration. In some embodiments the delivery systems are configured with a single actuator to control the movement of multiple components of the delivery system. In some embodiments the actuator controls the independent and dependent movement of multiple components of the delivery system.
1 ) A medical device system, comprising: a delivery system including an outer sheath and an inner member slidably received within the outer sheath, the inner member having a detent proximate a distal end of the inner member; and a replacement heart valve implant including an expandable anchoring element, the expandable anchoring element being releasably coupled to the distal end of the inner member; wherein the expandable anchoring element is releasable from the inner member when the detent proximate the distal end of the inner member is disposed outside of the outer sheath.
