Abstract
A guiding device is provided. An implantable apparatus includes a member to be anchored. A position-limiting wire is detachably connected to the implantable apparatus. A proximal end of the position-limiting wire is connected to the control handle. A distal end of the guiding catheter is provided with a guiding member. A distal end portion of the guiding catheter is bendable. A proximal end of the delivery catheter and a proximal end of the guiding catheter are respectively connected to the control handle. When the control handle is manipulated to make the guiding member on the guiding catheter move along the position-limiting wire toward the distal end, the distal end portion of the guiding catheter is bent and deformed, such that the distal end of the guiding catheter abuts against the member to be anchored of the implantable apparatus.
