Abstract

A catheter may include an elongate body comprising a proximal portion and a distal portion, and a plurality of electrodes carried by the distal portion. The distal portion of the catheter may be configured to transform from a low-profile delivery state to a radially expanded deployed state in which at least some electrodes of 'the plurality of electrodes are deployed at different circumferential positions of the radially expanded deployed slate. A ratio of a deployed electrode length to a diameter of the distal portion of the catheter in the radially expanded deployed state may be less than or equal to about 2.0. The deployed electrode length is a distance between, in the radially expanded deployed, stole, a proximal-most point of a proximal-most electrode of the plurality of electrodes and a distal-most point of a distal-most electrode of the plurality of electrodes.
