Publication number: 20190183570Abstract: An electrophysiologic catheter with an improved control handle is provided. The catheter includes a heat transfer assembly to better dissipate heat in the control handle. The heat transfer assembly includes a pump, a reservoir containing a coolant, a heat transfer member, and a coolant transport network transporting coolant between at least the reservoir and the heat transfer member. In one embodiment, the heat transfer member is located within the control handle as a heat exchanger on the circuit board to receive the coolant for transferring heat from the integrated circuits to the coolant. In another embodiment, the heat transfer member is located on the circuit board directly surrounding the integrated circuits to internally cool the integrated circuit within the control handle. A second heat transfer member is located outside of the control handle as a heat exchanger.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2019Publication date: June 20, 2019Inventors: Eduardo Jimenez, Jeffrey W. Schultz, Rogelio Plascencia, JR., Mario Solis, Arnold Tuason, Christopher Beeckler, Ariel Garcia, Assaf Govari, Yaron Ephrath, Dean Ponzi
