    Abstract: Discloses herein are ablative catheters and methods of use. The catheters can include a cooling chamber for circulating cooling fluid within the catheter tip to reduce hot spots within the catheter tip and/or to reduce the formation of coagulum. A proximal cooling chamber can be positioned proximally to a thermal mass for cooling a proximal portion of the catheter. In addition, or alternatively, a distal cooling chamber can be positioned for cooling a distal portion of the catheter tip. The cooling fluid can flow the ablative catheter in an open, closed, or open and closed loop.

    Abstract: Catheters and methods are provided for performing medical procedures. The catheter comprises an elongated flexible integrated catheter body having proximal and distal shaft portions, a central support positioned inside the distal shaft and at least one operative element carried by the distal shaft portion. The distal shaft portion has a proximal section configured to be internally actuated to form a simple curve with an apex that can be inserted into the vessel ostium, an intermediate section pre-shaped to form a curve that bends opposite the simple curve, and a distal section configured to be placed into a non-radial relationship with the vessel ostium when the apex of the simple curve is inserted into the vessel ostium.
