Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for treating the vasculature of a subject. An energy delivery system includes an energy delivery console, a catheter assembly, and a hub disposed within or attached to the catheter cable assembly. The catheter assembly connects to and receives energy from the energy delivery console. The catheter assembly includes first, second, and third heating elements being serially connected with a first number of connections to supply the energy to different configurations of the first, second, and third heating elements. The hub includes a pair of polarity reversing diodes configured to drive the first, second, and third heating elements of the catheter cable assembly with a second number of connections disposed between the energy delivery console and the catheter cable assembly. The second number of connections is one less than the first number of connections.

Abstract: A technique allows for an electrical connection between a thermal abrasion heating catheter and the energy delivery console that utilizes serial communication. Accordingly, the serial communication allows data such as measured temperature, start/stop status, intended treatment area, device identification, device calibration parameters and/or use history to be conveyed along the same wires that deliver power to a heating element. For example, data can be conveyed along a two wire connection and provided at a frequency that is filtered out so that it is not delivered to a heating feature. In this example, one wire provides power to the heating element, one wire provided communication from the energy delivery console, and a third wire provides a common ground which the heating catheter uses to communicate with the energy delivery console.
