Abstract
A medical device delivery system includes a sock removal mechanism, which also locks a deployment handle. The ability to lock the handle allows a medical device to be safely and effectively deployed to a treatment site without prematurely deploying a medical device. The sock can cover and/or restrain the medical device. The sock removal mechanism can release and retract the sock when separated from the handle.
