ABLATION CATHETER WITH CUT ELECTRODE
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250090226 titled 'ABLATION CATHETER WITH CUT ELECTRODE
Original Abstract Submitted
a catheter for ablating cardiac tissue through irreversible electroporation includes a tubular shaft and an electrode assembly extending distally from a tubular shaft. the electrode assembly defines a distally located flexible central hub portion and flexible splines. a distal ablation electrode includes a hub portion and ablation electrode radial segments. each ablation electrode radial segment includes a first series of gaps and a second series of gaps. the first series of gaps are spaced from one another along a length of the ablation electrode radial segment and extend partially across the width of the ablation electrode radial segment from a first longitudinal side toward a second longitudinal side. the second series of gaps are spaced from one another along the length of the ablation electrode radial segment and extend partially across the width of the ablation electrode radial segments from the second longitudinal side toward the first longitudinal side.
