Abstract
A medical device including stabilizing wires that are selectively movable from a first and second position and a delivery system including the same are described herein. The medical device includes a device body and the stabilizing wires coupled thereto. Each stabilizing wire has a proximal and distal end. In the first position, at least a portion of the distal end extends radially outwardly from the device body, and in the second position, the distal end is retracted within the device body. Each stabilizing wire includes a linear portion at the proximal end, a hook portion at the distal end, and a ramp segment extending between the linear portion and the hook portion, including a ramp incline portion that extends at a first angle from the linear portion to a ramp apex, and a ramp decline portion that extends at a second angle from the hook portion to the ramp apex.
