SECTION 3.5 DEPLOYMENT SEQUENCE FOR THE THORAFLEX™ HYBRID DEVICE
3.5.1 Sheath Retraction (Device Release Stage I)
When the optimum orientation and position has been achieved the delivery system should be unsheathed. In
order to unsheath the device, firmly stabilise the handle with one hand and with the other hand pull back the strap
in-line with the handle (Figure 11a, b, c). This will simultaneously retract and split the sheath allowing it to be
completely removed from the delivery system. The complete stented section of the device will now be unsheathed.
