A medical device system may include a structure including a first elongate member, a line including a plurality of flexible members, and an actuator coupled to the line to selectively transmit force to at least the first elongate member. The structure may include a delivery configuration in which at least a portion of the structure is arranged to be percutaneously delivered to a bodily cavity. Respective portions of the flexible members may be intertwined together to form a braided portion of the line, and the line may include an unbraided portion secured at least to the first elongate member. The braided portion of the line may be located between the actuator and the first elongate member.
A medical device system comprising:
A method of manufacturing at least a portion of a medical device system, the medical device system comprising a structure including a plurality of elongate members that include at least a first elongate member positionable in a delivery configuration in which the first elongate member is percutaneously deliverable to a bodily cavity, and the medical device system comprising a line including a plurality of flexible members, respective portions thereof intertwined together to form a braided portion of the line, the structure selectively moveable between the delivery configuration in which the elongate members are arranged to be percutaneously deliverable to the bodily cavity, and a deployed configuration in which respective portions of the elongate members are further separated from each other as compared to the delivery configuration and in which the structure is arranged to have a size too large to be percutaneously deliverable to the bodily cavity, the method comprising:
