Abstract:
A medical device frame including an undulating frame element defining a series of peaks each defining a longitudinal splay angle, circumferential cant angle, or combinations thereof. In some examples, the series of peaks are non-overlapping when the frame is in an expanded configuration and overlap when the frame is in the collapsed configuration. The longitudinal splay angle and/or circumferential cant angle may remain relatively unchanged between the expanded and collapsed configurations (e.g., within about 15%).
