  • ANATOMICAL VESSEL HEAT SENSORS
    Publication number: 20190117079
    Abstract: Heat sensors can be positioned within the esophagus of a patient so as to monitor temperature changes during ablation procedures in the heart. Some heat sensors can include a wire that defines an extended heat sensing region capable of detecting a change in the local temperature. Some heat sensors can be conformable to an inner surface of the esophageal wall to maintain contact therewith or to be in close proximity thereto.
    Type: Application

  • Anatomical vessel heat sensors
    Patent number: 10182725
    Abstract: Heat sensors can be positioned within an anatomical vessel of a patient so as to monitor temperature changes, such as during ablation procedures in the heart. Some heat sensors can include a wire that defines an extended heat sensing region capable of detecting a change in the local temperature. Some heat sensors can be conformable to an inner surface of a wall of an anatomical vessel to maintain contact therewith or to be in close proximity thereto.

  • Devices for creation of multiple vascular access sites
    Patent number: 9713695
    Abstract: Various medical procedures benefit from the creation of multiple access sites in a single anatomical vessel. For example, in some cardiac procedures, a plurality of catheters may be introduced into a single blood vessel through a corresponding plurality of access sites. The present application discloses devices for creating multiple access sites in a vessel and methods of using the same.

  • Fluidic esophageal heat sensors
    Patent number: 9044143
    Abstract: Heat sensors can be positioned within the esophagus of a patient so as to monitor temperature changes during ablation procedures in the heart. Some heat sensors can include one or more fluid passageways that define an extended heat sensing region capable of detecting a change in the local temperature. Some heat sensors can be conformable to an inner surface of the esophageal wall to maintain contact therewith or to be in close proximity thereto.
