Abstract:
A balloon catheter includes an elongate shaft, a balloon, and one or more biasing members. The elongate shaft has a proximal end and a distal end. The balloon is attached to the elongate shaft at the distal end of the elongate shaft. The balloon includes a balloon chamber for receiving inflation fluid. The one or more biasing members are connected to the balloon. The one or more biasing members move to a non-biased state when the balloon is inflated and move to a biased state when the balloon is deflated such that the one or more biasing members cause the balloon to return to an original shape of the balloon.
