Zusammenfassung:	Catheter systems for delivery and retrieval of leadless pacemakers include each of a leadless pacemaker, a docking cap, and a retriever. The retriever may include a flexible grasper that interacts with the docking cap such that by disposing the flexible grasper within a chamber of the docking cap, the docking cap may be made to lock the flexible grasper onto a docking projection of the leadless pacemaker. The retriever may alternatively include a pair of lumens through which snare wires are passed forming respective loops. By translating the snare wires relative to the lumens, the snare wires may be made to tighten around the docking projection of the leadless pacemaker.
