Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: an elongated body; a stylet coil including a stylet coil lumen, the stylet coil extending within the elongated body; and a conductor assembly including a plurality of insulated electrical conductors braided in a tubular braided configuration around the stylet coil, the tubular braided configuration including the plurality of insulated electrical conductors braided with one another, the conductor assembly including an inner lumen with a diameter greater than an outside diameter of the stylet coil, wherein the inner lumen of the conductor assembly is separated from the stylet coil by a gap with the elongated body in a relaxed condition, wherein axial elongation of the elongated body reduces an inner diameter of the conductor assembly to close the gap and cause the conductor assembly to constrict around the stylet coil.
