Abstract

See full text

A medical device is movable between first and second positions. The medical device has an actuator which is movable between a relaxed position and a stacked position. The stacked position of the actuator deforms the medical device toward the stacked position of the actuator. When the actuator is in the relaxed position, the shape of the medical device is primarily determined by the shape of a main element.
