Abstract
A catheter system for implant delivery is provided. The delivery system includes a primary rotary knob and a secondary rotary knob. The primary rotary knob moves a catheter shaft to load or unload an implant whereas the secondary rotary knob is connected to an inner shaft. The inner shaft comprises an implant holder to engage with the implant during loading and unloading. The movement of the inner shaft due to rotation of the secondary rotary knob improves positioning of the implant and ensures detachment of the implant from the implant holder due to micro movements of the implant holder.
