Zusammenfassung:A handle assembly for a prosthesis delivery device is disclosed. The handle assembly includes a main handle, a rotatable handle, a retractable sheath operatively coupled to the rotatable handle, at least one rotatable ring having a rotatable inner surface, the at least one rotatable ring coupled to a distal end of at least one trigger wire, and the at least one trigger wire having a proximal end configured to releasably engage a prosthesis. Rotation of the rotatable handle is configured to retract the sheath in a distal direction and rotation of the at least one rotatable ring is configured to wind at least a portion of the trigger wire onto the rotatable inner surface and withdraw the at least one trigger wire in the distal direction.
