摘要：
A method is provided for loading and delivering a self-expanding stent. The stent is compressed from its expanded diameter to a smaller delivery diameter. While compressed, the stent is pushed from the proximal end through the proximal end opening of a restraining sheath. The restraining sheath retains the stent in the delivery diameter. In order to deliver the stent, the proximal end of the stent is pushed and the restraining sheath is withdrawn proximally from the stent. As a result, the stent is released from the distal end opening of the restraining sheath.
