    Abstract: A method of forming a composite lesion pattern in a tissue region at or near a sphincter comprising providing a catheter having a plurality of energy delivery devices coupled to the catheter. The catheter is introduced at least partially into the sphincter. Energy is delivered from the energy delivery devices to produce the composite lesion pattern. The composite lesion pattern comprises a radial distribution of lesions about the tissue region and a longitudinal distribution of lesions along the tissue region.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for positioning and stabilizing an external instrument during insertion of the instrument through the oral cavity (e.g., insertion of a catheter through the oral cavity and into the esophagus or cardia for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)). The systems and methods provide a gripping tool for association with a bite block, capable of selectively moving between an open position in which the instrument may be inserted or removed, and a closed position in which the external instrument is held in a fixed position.

    Abstract: A surgical apparatus having an expandable structure including first, second and third spines forming a basket, movable between expanded and contracted positions. Each of the spines has first, second and third lumens, wherein an electrode element is movable within the first lumen of the first, second and third spines through a first opening in the spine. The second lumen of the first and second spines carries a temperature sensing element, the temperature sensing element exposed through a second opening in the spine positioned between the first and second lumens. The second lumen of the third spine is configured to receive a guidewire, and the third lumen of the first, second and third spines is connectable to a tube for carrying cooling fluid therethrough.
