Abstract
A device for implantation in a vessel is provided with a geometry designed to reduce the drag experienced by the device when deployed using a sheathed delivery system. Sections of the device are provided with regions of high-points and low-points on the device's outer surface by curving one or more of the struts of the device. The high points serve as the contact points of the device with the sheath as the sheath and the delivery system are withdrawn from between the device and the vessel.
