Abstract: A catheter assembly comprises a catheter having an axial lumen that houses electrical wires. A plurality of splines, each supporting at least one electrode, are connected to the wires and a distal cap. The splines have a basket shape in a deployed position and a collapsed shape when received inside the catheter axial lumen. A flexible tube extending outwardly from the catheter lumen has a tube lumen of a first, inner diameter and a distal tube end that is spaced proximally from the distal cap. A guide shaft extending proximally from the distal cap has a second, outer diameter that is less than the first diameter of the tube lumen. With the guide shaft received in the tube lumen, an annulus is formed by the tube lumen surrounding the guide shaft. With the splines in the deployed position, the annulus permits flushing of the area adjacent to the deployed splines.

Abstract: A catheter assembly can include an elongated catheter having opposed proximal and distal end portions and having an axial lumen extending therethrough, the axial lumen configured to accommodate electrical wires. The assembly can include a distal electrode array configured to have a basket shape in a deployed position and configured to collapse in a collapsed position, the distal electrode array configured to extend from the distal end portion of the elongated catheter in the deployed position and to be selectively contained within the axial lumen or other sheath in the collapsed position.

Abstract: Grip with electronic system and exterior venting. In an embodiment, the grip comprises a main body comprising a shaft cavity extending from an open first end to a second end. The grip also comprises an end cap that is attached to the second end of the main body. The end cap comprises a base adjacent to the second end of the main body, which comprises one or more vent openings to one or more vent paths. The end cap also comprises a side wall extending from the base and defining an interior cavity. The end cap further comprises one or more vent paths. Each vent path provides fluid communication between at least one of the vent opening(s) and at least one of one or more vent holes in an exterior surface of the side wall. An electronic system is positioned within the interior cavity of the end cap.

Abstract: A sprinkler housing having a side inlet with improved strength and durability is disclosed. The housing includes an inlet opening having a shape configured to position regions of peak stress concentration on the housing side walls, upon the sprinkler housing being filled with a pressurized fluid, circumferentially spaced from the upper and lower central points of the inlet opening to provide a more robust sprinkler housing.
