    Abstract: A neuromodulation catheter positionable within a blood vessel for transvascular nerve stimulation includes a catheter body and an electrically insulative substrate carried at a distal end of the catheter body. A distal end of the substrate includes a plurality of laterally spaced-apart fingers. The substrate includes a first face and a second face on an opposite side of the substrate from the first face. A plurality of electrodes are disposed on the first face of the substrate such that each of the fingers has a plurality of the electrodes longitudinally spaced thereon. A support at the distal end of the catheter is expandable within the blood vessel to bias the first faces of the fingers against the wall of a blood vessel so as to bias at least a portion of the electrodes in contact with the wall.
