Abstract
Various systems and methods of deploying an implant to a target location of a body vessel are disclosed. A delivery system can include a tubular body having a lumen extending therethrough. A pull wire can extend through the lumen with the pull wire including a distal portion. An elastic loop wire can include a loop opening which is positioned approximate a distal end of the tubular body and can include a proximal attachment point that is affixed to the pull wire. The elastic loop wire and the pull wire can be positioned to secure the implantable medical device to the delivery system. The elastic loop wire can be effective to inhibit premature detachment of the implantable medical device from the delivery system by inhibiting proximal translation of the pull wire with respect to the loop opening of the elastic loop wire.
