Abstract: A system including a delivery apparatus, a crimping device, and a loading assembly. The crimping device includes a housing disposed over a distal end portion of the delivery apparatus for receiving a radially expandable and compressible prosthetic heart valve. The housing includes a funnel segment, a pusher member, and an actuator releasably coupled to the pusher member. Movement of the actuator causes the pusher member to advance the prosthetic heart valve through the funnel segment for radially compressing at least a portion of the prosthetic heart valve. Compression of the prosthetic heart valve facilitates secure attachment of the prosthetic heart valve to the delivery apparatus. The loading assembly can include an additional funnel member for fully crimping and loading the prosthetic heart valve into the delivery apparatus for advancement through a patient's vasculature.

Abstract: A stabilizer for use with a delivery system is provided. The stabilizer receives a delivery system, such as a handle portion, and prevents unwanted movement of the delivery system during a medical procedure. The stabilizer desirably includes an elongate rail that is adapted to be secured to a base or table. A rail dock is adapted to releasably couple to the delivery system. The rail dock is slidably mounted along an upper surface of the rail and includes a brake assembly. The brake assembly preferably includes a toggle member with at least one push button, wherein actuation of the push button may release or lock the brake assembly. Components of the stabilizer are provided for allowing the stabilizer to be used with different delivery systems and the stabilizer is capable of being secured to different sized tables.
