Abstract
A catheter assembly includes an outer sheath and a hypotube ultrasonic transmission member. The outer sheath has a first end, a second end, a frustoconical side wall portion located proximal to the second end, and a sheath lumen extending from the first end to the second end. The hypotube ultrasonic transmission member is disposed in the sheath lumen. The hypotube ultrasonic transmission member has a hypotube side wall, a proximal hypotube portion, a distal hypotube portion, and a tapered intermediate portion. The proximal hypotube portion is configured to be operatively coupled to an ultrasonic transducer. The proximal hypotube portion has a first diameter, and the distal hypotube portion has a second diameter that is less than the first diameter. The tapered intermediate portion is configured to transition from the first diameter to the second diameter. The tapered intermediate portion is located proximate the frustoconical side wall portion.
