A delivery device includes a handle, a central elongate member extending from the handle, a sheath configured to slide over and relative to the central elongate member, a distal tether retainer at a distal end of the central elongate member, a proximal tether restraining mechanism positioned along the central elongate member distal of the handle and proximal of the distal tether retainer, and a plurality of tethers. The tethers are configured to extend from the proximal tether restraining mechanism to the distal tether retainer.

Cardiac valve delivery devices and systems

A delivery device includes a central elongate structure including an annular member at the distal end, a sheath, a plurality of tethers extending through the central elongate structure, a handle, and a control on the handle. The handle is connected to the elongate structure, the sheath, and the plurality of tethers. The control is configured to move the sheath proximally and distally over the central elongate structure. The annular member includes a plurality of pockets extending radially therearound. Each tether includes a feature on a distal end thereof configured to fit within a pocket of the plurality of pockets to hold the tethers in place.

A delivery device includes a central elongate structure, a sheath, a plurality of tethers extending through the central elongate structure configured to hold a cardiac valve, a cutting mechanism, a handle, and a control. The sheath is configured to slide over the central elongate structure. The cutting mechanism is configured to cut the tethers upon activation to release the cardiac valve. The handle is connected to the central elongate structure. The control on the handle is configured to activate the cutting mechanism.
