  • CARDIAC ABLATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20140288556
    Abstract: Cardiac ablation systems and methods of their use and manufacture involve an ablation mechanism, a stabilizer mechanism, and a cinching mechanism that urges the ablation mechanism toward a patient tissue. Embodiments encompass methods for administering epicardial and endocardial lesions, including box lesions and connecting lesions, to patient tissue.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 30, 2013
    Publication date: September 25, 2014

  • MAGNETIC INTRODUCER SYSTEMS AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20090163768
    Abstract: Systems and methods for placing a treatment device within a patient involve advancing a magnetic first introducer into the patient, advancing a magnetic second introducer into the patient, coupling the first introducer with the second introducer via magnetic force, and using the introducer devices to place a treatment device at a desired location within the patient. Optionally, such techniques involve visualization of the introducers or treatment devices during the procedure.
