Abstract:
Medical devices and methods for making and using the same are disclosed. An example medical device may include an ablative catheter for nerve modulation through a wall of a blood vessel. The catheter may include a catheter sheath having a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen extending from the proximal to the distal end. An elongate member may extend along a central elongate axis within the lumen of the catheter sheath. The elongate member having a proximal end and a distal end. An expandable ablative member may be coupled to the distal end of the elongate member having an insulative section connected to a bare electrode section. The ablative member may be configured to switch between a collapsed position and an expanded position.
