Abstract
A medical probe is presented including an expandable basket assembly coupled to a distal end of a tubular shaft. The basket assembly includes a cloverleaf cutout structure at its distal end and spines extending proximally from the cloverleaf structure and coupling to the tubular shaft. The cloverleaf structure includes a sinusoidal-like member extending from one spine to an adjacent spine in a direction around the longitudinal axis. Dimensions of the sinusoidal-like member can be configured to provide a lateral stiffness of the expandable basket assembly within a predetermined range and a maximum peak stress during retraction of the expandable basket assembly into an intermediate catheter such that the maximum peak stress is less than a predetermined threshold.
