Abstract: A balloon catheter configured for delivery of a prosthetic heart valve is provided. The balloon catheter is configured to deploy a prosthetic heart valve through inflation. The balloon catheter is provided with a reinforcing member configured to increase the rigidity of the balloon catheter over an operational portion of the device. The increased rigidity serves to prevent damage to an introducer sheath, patient anatomy, or the prosthetic heart valve during delivery of the prosthetic heart valve.

Abstract: A delivery device includes a handle, a sheath distally extending from the handle, a capsule distally extending from the sheath, and a pull wire having a proximal end attached to the handle and a distal end attached to the capsule. The sheath defines a central lumen there-through and has a longitudinally-extending lumen formed within a wall of the sheath. The capsule has a tubular body with an intermediate region having a plurality of ribs and a plurality of slots defined therein. The capsule includes an indented segment defined on the tubular body, the indented segment being disposed radially inward relative to the tubular body. The pull wire is tensioned to bend the capsule. The pull wire is slidably disposed within the longitudinally-extending lumen of the sheath and along an inner surface of the tubular body of the capsule with a portion of the pull wire crossing over an outer surface of the indented segment.
