Abstract
A medical device includes a handle with a primary actuator and one or more secondary actuators, an end cap configured to be coupled to a distal end of another medical device and including stationary and movable portions, one or more patches that are coupled to the movable portion, one or more control elements coupling the primary actuator to the movable portion; and one or more actuation elements. The one or more actuation elements extend from the one or more secondary actuators to a position between a portion of the one or more patches and the movable portion of the end cap. Movement of the primary actuator moves the movable portion of the end cap relative to the stationary portion of the end cap, and movement of the one or more secondary actuators at least partially deploys the one or more patches from the movable portion of the end cap.
