Abstract

A catheter (10) includes a manifold (12) and a proximal shaft portion (16) coupled to the manifold (12). A distal shaft portion (18) is coupled to a distal end of the proximal shaft portion (16) and is flexible relative to the proximal shaft portion (16). A fiber reinforcement layer (26) is disposed about the distal shaft portion (18).
