Abstract
Embolic material capture catheters and related devices and methods constrain a distal end portion of an embolic material capture element in an insertion configuration. A method of deploying an embolic material capture element in a blood vessel includes constraining a distal end portion of the embolic material capture element in an insertion configuration via engagement with a dilator assembly. The embolic material capture element, in the insertion configuration, is advanced through the blood vessel. A deployment cap of the dilator assembly is distally advanced relative to a dilator sheath of the dilator assembly to release the distal end portion of the embolic material capture element from engagement with the dilator assembly to reconfigure the embolic material capture element from the insertion configuration to a fully deployed configuration via self-expansion of the embolic material capture element.
