  • Patent number: 11318031
    Abstract: A device for feeding and setting an implant into a blood vessel includes a hollow cylindrical portion formed of an expandable wire mesh netting with a first end and a second end, with a sleeve for receiving the implant in a radially compressed state. The sleeve is arrangeable along a guide wire. The sleeve for receiving the implant in the radially compressed state is formed by an inner sleeve, around which at least one outer sleeve with a distal end and a proximal end is arranged. The implant is arranged in the inner sleeve in such a way that the second end of the hollow cylindrical portion is arranged on the end facing the proximal end of the outer sleeve, so that during setting of the implant, the inner sleeve surrounding the implant can be moved into the outer sleeve in the distal direction so that the implant expands, beginning from the second end.
