  • Electroporation catheter
    Patent number: 10814128
    Abstract: A catheter includes first and second handles, first and second tubular members, and first and second electrodes. The first tubular member defines a channel therethrough and is coupled to and distally extends from the first handle. The second tubular member is coupled to and distally extends from the second handle. The second tubular member is slidably disposed within the channel of the first tubular member and defines a lumen therethrough. The first and second electrodes are configured to generate an electric field therebetween. The second handle is translatable relative to the first handle between a retracted position in which the second electrode is adjacent the first electrode and an extended position in which the second electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode.
