Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system for deploying a valve prosthesis having a deployment device configured to deploy a valve prosthesis. The deployment device including a catheter body, a tension cable, a capsule, a handle, and a deployment assist. The catheter body having a proximal end and a distal end, the body includes a lumen extending a length of the catheter body. The tension cable being positioned within the catheter body. The capsule having a delivery configuration and a deployed configuration, the capsule being positioned at the distal end of the catheter body and coupled to the first end of the tension cable, wherein the tension cable inhibits the capsule from transitioning between the delivery configuration and the deployed configuration. The handle is positioned at the proximal end of the catheter body. The deployment assist is positioned at the handle and places a force to help transition the delivery configuration to the deployed configuration.
