    Abstract: A reinforced cardiovascular sheath and wire assembly includes an inner tube with an external surface extending between a proximal end and a distal end. A reinforcement braid is in contact with the external surface of the inner tube. A wire with a distal segment is interwoven into, and in contact with, the reinforcement braid. A proximal segment of the wire extends proximally from the proximal end of the inner tube out of contact with the reinforcement braid. An outer tube receives, and is in contact with, the reinforcement braid and the inner tube. A vascular intervention device delivery system utilizes the sheath/wire assembly as a retractable sheath and pull wire.
