Abstract
A device includes a capture assembly, a hollow member, a tube, and a control member. The assembly includes a capture sleeve received on a distal end of an insertion device and a flange mounted on the insertion device proximal of the sleeve. The hollow member, the tube, and the control member each have a proximal end accessible by the user. The tube pushes the sleeve distally off the insertion device when the tube is advanced distally through the hollow member. The control member includes a distal end forming a loop coupled around a circumference of a distal opening of the sleeve. The loop moves between a constricted configuration in which at least a portion of the loop is drawn proximally into the tube and an open configuration in which the loop is extended distally from the tube to open the loop and the distal opening of the sleeve.
