Abstract
Disclosed herein are various exemplary systems and methods for deploying an implant to a target location of a body vessel. The delivery member can include a tubular body including a lumen and compressed distal portion. The delivery member can include a loop wire with a loop opening positioned approximate the compressed distal portion. The delivery member can include a pull wire that has a proximal pull wire portion and a distal pull wire portion connected by a suture linkage. The suture linkage can include a proximal suture knot engaged to the proximal pull wire portion and a distal suture knot engaged to the distal pull wire portion. Pull wire beads positioned on the proximal pull wire and distal pull wire portion can retain the suture knots during proximal translation of the pull wire. The suture linkage can include slack that is effective to prevent premature deployment of the implant.
