    摘要: A delivery tool of a system for deploying medical diagnostics and/or therapy includes a deployment member and a sheath. An elastic cantilever element secured to a tubular sidewall of the deployment member, in proximity to a distal opening of a lumen formed by the sidewall, is spring biased to extend outward from the sidewall. When the cantilever element is received within the sheath, a sheath sidewall pushes the cantilever element inward, against the spring bias thereof, and a radius of curvature of the cantilever element approximately conforms to that of an outer surface of the deployment member sidewall. A helical track for receiving passage of a medical device helix fixation element therein may extend around a perimeter of the deployment member lumen, wherein a distal terminal end of the track is located in close proximity to the distal opening and generally opposite a free end of the cantilever element.

    摘要: A medical device includes an elongated body having a proximal end and a distal end and a braided tubular body extending coaxially with the elongated body between the proximal and distal ends. The braided tubular body includes multiple cables extending helically in opposing directions in an interwoven manner. Each cable includes multiple, electrically conductive filars. In some examples, each filar includes an electrically insulating coating or layer.
