    Abstract: An example introducer is disclosed. An example introducer includes a tubular member including an inner layer and an outer layer, the inner layer having an inner surface, an outer surface and wall extending therebetween. The outer layer is disposed along the outer surface of the inner layer. The inner layer includes a plurality of longitudinal channels extending radially outward from the inner surface. Each channel of the plurality of channels has a circumferential width. Further, the tubular member is designed to shift from an unexpanded configuration to an expanded configuration, wherein the width of each channel increases as the tubular member shifts from the unexpanded configuration to the expanded configuration.

    Abstract: A delivery system is provided for delivering an expandable medical device. The delivery system includes a catheter shaft, a proximal stop coupled to the catheter shaft, an inner tube coupled to the proximal stop and extending distally therefrom, a distal stop coupled to the inner tube, and a balloon disposed over the distal stop, the inner tube, and the proximal stop. The inner tube defines an inflation lumen and has a plurality of openings extending through a sidewall of the inner tube into the inflation lumen. The distal stop includes at least one channel extending through a sidewall of the distal stop into the lumen. The distal stop is configured to allow inflation fluid to flow through the inner tube and the at least one channel into a distal region of the balloon.

    Abstract: An introducer may include a layered tubular member having an inner liner including at least one folded portion extending along a distal region of the inner liner in a delivery configuration; a reinforcing member disposed over at least a portion of the inner liner, the reinforcing member including a plurality of longitudinal spines defining a plurality of openings disposed between adjacent longitudinal spines, wherein each folded portion is circumferentially overlapped by one of the plurality of openings; and an outer sheath disposed over the reinforcing member, wherein the outer sheath includes at least one perforation circumferentially overlapping each folded portion; and a tip member fixedly attached to a tapered distal region of the layered tubular member. The inner liner may extend to a distal end of the layered tubular member. At least a portion of each folded portion may terminate proximal of the distal end of the layered tubular member.
