Abstract

Devices used to deploy transvascular medical device systems and methods for using such devices are described in this document. For example, this document describes dilating introducer devices used for the percutaneous vascular deployment of catheter-based medical devices such as structural heart medical devices. Such dilating introducer devices can facilitate the percutaneous vascular deployment of catheter-based medical devices without an additional introducer sheath.
