    摘要: Disclose herein are embodiments related to a delivery system for performing a minimally invasive procedure, the system including one or more station legs configured to attach to an operating surface and a cross-beam connected to the one or more station legs and running from 0° to 45° relative to a top of the operating surface, wherein a distance between the operating surface and the cross-beam is adjustable. Additionally, an embodiment may have a first arm connected to the cross-beam, a second arm connected to the first arm, and an axial member connected to the second arm, the axial member comprising an axial joint. The delivery system may then be configured to advance to an internal target site using the axial joint while maintaining a stationary trajectory in relation to the internal target site with the delivery system trajectory is modifiable at the target site.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a delivery system for percutaneous heart valve repair, the delivery system including a steerable sheath configured to provide percutaneous access into a heart and to deliver an implant. The system may also have a steering mechanism configured to manipulate and orient the implant, a ball joint mechanism configured to connect the steerable sheath to the steering mechanism, a main knob assembly configured to advance and retract a multilumen shaft assembly, a stabilizing tool including a plurality of prongs configured to engage the implant within the heart to make an intimate contact with the heart tissue using a stabilizer and a tongue assembly, and a back assembly including: the actuation mechanism, a suture routing mechanism, a tip lock mechanism, and a back cover configured to protect all sutures being cut by mistake.
