Abstract
A catheter handle includes a housing extending from a proximal end to a distal end along a longitudinal axis. The housing defines an internal cavity. The catheter handle also includes at least one wire extending through the internal cavity between the proximal end and the distal end. The catheter handle further includes a wire management cap positioned within the internal cavity between a movable component of the catheter handle and one of the proximal and distal ends. The wire management cap defines a wire receiver cavity sized to receive a portion of the wire therein. The wire management cap is oriented such that the portion of the wire in the wire receiver cavity is separated from the movable component by the wire management cap to prevent interference between the movable component and the wire.
