- an elongated handle housing having a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis extending from the proximal end to the distal end;
a rotatable collar disposed about the proximal end of the handle housing;
a control knob rotatably disposed about a proximal portion of the rotatable collar; and
a slidable door disposed about and engaged with a distal portion of the rotatable collar, the slidable door being longitudinally translatable between a proximal closed position and a distal open position;
wherein the slidable door is non-rotatable with respect to the rotatable collar;
wherein the slidable door is non-rotatable with respect to the handle housing in the proximal closed position and rotatable with respect to the handle housing in the distal open position.

Abstract
A medical device handle may include an elongated handle housing, a rotatable collar disposed about the handle housing, a rotatable control knob disposed about the collar, and a slidable door disposed about the collar. The door may be rotatably locked to the collar to prevent relative rotation between the door and the collar.
