Abstract
An apparatus includes a handle, a catheter, extending distally from the handle, an end effector extending distally from the catheter, a deflection assembly, and a load limiting assembly. The deflection assembly is configured to deflect the end effector away from a longitudinal axis of the catheter. The deflection assembly includes an input member and a translating assembly. The input member is configured to drive the translating assembly to deflect the end effector away from the longitudinal axis. The load limiting assembly is configured to decouple the input member from the translating assembly at a predetermined load such that the input member is inhibited from driving the translating assembly when the input member is decoupled by the load limiting assembly.
