Abstract: A proximal stent-graft retention system includes a stent-graft having a suture loop attached to a proximal end of the stent-graft and a delivery catheter having a distal tip that includes a retention feature. The retention feature can include a slot extending through a sidewall of the distal tip and a trigger wire. The slot of the distal tip exposes a portion of the trigger wire within the tip lumen such that the trigger wire may extend through the suture loop of the stent-graft at the slot of the distal tip of the delivery catheter and is configured to retain the proximal end of the stent-graft in the radially expanded configuration via the suture loop to prevent distal migration and compression of the stent-graft. Proximal retraction of the trigger wire releases the suture loop of the stent-graft such that the stent-graft is no longer coupled to the delivery catheter.

Abstract: A safety device for a cycle which may comprise a housing (1) with at least a translucent window provided therein, an electrical power supply (5) mounted within the housing, an electrical lamp (14) connected to the power supply via switch means (11), (12), one contact (11) of which is movable in response to rotary motion of the housing (1) into engagement with a fixed contact (12), and means (16), (17) provided on the housing (1) for attaching device to a least one spoke of a cycle wheel.
