  • Large surface cardiac ablation catherter that assumes a low profile during introduction into the heart
    Patent number: 6379352
    Abstract: A cardiac ablation catheter has an energy emitting surface for thermally destroying tissue. The surface normally presents a compact, low profile for introduction into the heart. Once introduced, the energy emitting surface can be significantly enlarged. The enlarged surface emits ablation energy sufficient to create a lesion that is significantly larger in terms of volume and geometry than the surface's initial low profile would provide.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 22, 2000
    Date of Patent: April 30, 2002
    Assignee: EP Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Jeffrey N. Reynolds, Thomas Bourne, Jerome Jackson, Gloria Alvarez, Stuart D. Edwards
