Abstract

See full text

An intravascular catheter including a proximal stiff metallic tube and a distal flexible tube. A distal portion of the metallic tube has a portion removed to define a void (e.g., spiral slot) which decreases the stiffness of the metallic tube. A proximal portion of the distal flexible tube is disposed in the void to provide a secure connection and to blend the stiffness of the metallic proximal tube and the flexible distal tube without significantly increasing profile.
