  • Publication number: 20220008125
    Abstract: An ablation device including an ablation applicator having a first applicator end portion, a second applicator end portion, and an elongate portion, a first catheter having a first distal end portion and a first proximate end portion, the first distal end portion being coupled to the first applicator end portion, and a second catheter having a second distal end portion and a second proximate end portion, the second distal end portion being coupled to the second applicator end portion to supply an ablation medium to the ablation applicator, the ablation applicator forms an applicator shape having an applicator size in a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the first catheter, and the coupling between the first distal end portion and the first applicator end portion transfers a rotational force applied to the first proximate end portion to the ablation applicator and thereby cause the applicator size to change.

  • Patent number: 10369355
    Abstract: An implantable neural tissue electrode assembly includes a cylindrical electrode lead with at least one electrode contact on the outer surface of the electrode lead. An active distal end fixation anchor is located at the distal end of the electrode lead and is adapted to fasten to adjacent tissue by rotation in a fastening direction. A passive rear fixation anchor is located on the outer surface of the electrode lead offset a longitudinal distance back from the distal end and has at least one curved blade with a blade tip directed away from rotation in the fastening direction. The rear fixation anchor is adapted to permanently fasten to adjacent tissue by rotation opposite to the fastening direction so that the blade tip cuts into the adjacent tissue, and the electrode assembly is adapted such that physiological induced strains are distributed along the electrode lead.
