Abstract
An introducer sheath that is coupled to or integrated with a secondary device insertion hub, such as a hemostasis valve hub, wherein the secondary device insertion hub is received within a proximal portion of the introducer sheath. The introducer sheath may include one or more pull wire lumens, and the secondary device insertion hub does not cover or obstruct the proximal opening of each of the one or more pull wire lumens when coupled to or integrated with the introducer sheath. In this configuration one or more pull wires are free to exit the one or more pull wire lumens through a proximal face of the introducer sheath instead of a skive in a wall of the elongate body.
