• guiding the conduit into the guide tube via a conical guide that communicates with the guide tube;
• disposing a texture from the conduit on a curved surface of a conduit;
• the texture comprising a plurality of patterns;
• each pattern being defined by a plurality of spaced apart features attached to or projected into the curved surface, the plurality of features each having at least one neighboring feature having a substantially different geometry, wherein an average spacing between adjacent spaced apart features is about 1 nanometer to about 1 millimeter in at least a portion of the curved surface, wherein the plurality of spaced apart features are represented by a periodic function;
• and
• disposing the conduit in a body of a living being.
