Background

Delivering a long stent into the vasculature requires a huge amount of individual actuations with the thumb, with a real risk to
clinicians of developing RSI. The associated force (from the thumb) required to deliver a stent into complex and tortuous vessels
can be extremely high. The hand muscles controlling the thumb, while excellent for precise control, are not optimised for delivery
of high levels of force. This is compounded by multiple actuations required during the procedure.

Outcome

When designing Hummingbird, we decided that instead of single thumb actuation for the whole stent deployment, a thumbwheel
would be ideal for initial deployment, then users can lock the thumbwheel and engage the trigger handle for rapid macrodeployment.
Thus reducing the risk of RSI, and making the Hummingbird the ideal stent delivery platform, while maintaining the
necessary level of precision.
