Abstract: The present disclosure provides a catheter design tool and methods thereof for selecting or designing an optimal catheter profile for a particular patient or group of patients. For example, the tool includes a data set (e.g., input into the system) pertaining to a plurality of anatomy parameters and a plurality of catheter parameters to determine one or more catheter profiles that allow the best implant efficacy for a particular patient or group of patients. Specifically, the tool evaluates the efficacy of a particular catheter profile for use with a particular patient, the most optimal catheter profile from a plurality of catheter profiles for use with a particular patient, and/or the most optimal catheter profile from a plurality of catheter profiles for use with a group of patients.
