Expandable member for an electrophysiology catheter

Abstract:

Expandable electrophysiology catheters having electrodes mounted on splines of an expandable member are described. The splines of the expandable member include subsegments between a proximal location and a distal intersection at a central axis. The subsegments can include respective top-down profiles, and at least one of the top-down subsegment profiles is straight between the central axis and an adjacent top-down subsegment profile. The subsegments can be interconnected to extend continuously about the central axis from the proximal location to the distal intersection. Other embodiments are also described.
