1. A delivery device for deploying an insertable into an orifice guided by digit, the delivery device comprising:
a. an insertable orientation tubular structure adapted to orient the insertable in a deployment orientation; and
b. a digit orientation tubular structure adapted to orient a portion of at least one digit in a navigation orientation,
the insertable orientation tubular structure and the digit orientation tubular structure adjoined across a partition with a partition cross-section, and the deployment orientation and the navigation orientation arranged for digit guided deployment of the insertable into the orifice;
wherein the insertable orientation tubular structure further comprises a sheath member with proximal and distal ends defining a sheath member length and having a sheath member thickness defined by inner and outer surfaces, the sheath member extends distally from, or adjacent, the insertable orientation tubular structure proximal portion such that the sheath member inner surface substantially surrounds the insertable in a surrounding configuration.
