    摘要: A medical probe includes an elongate member having a proximal end and a distal end, an ablative element mounted to the distal end of the elongate member, and a cage assembly mounted to the distal end of the elongate member, the cage assembly at least partially covers the ablative element. A method of treating tissue in a body includes inserting an ablative element in the body, placing the ablative element adjacent the tissue, and maintaining a distance between the ablative element and the tissue using a protective catheter element that circumscribes at least a portion of the ablative element.

    摘要: Systems and methods provide protection for patient tissue during radiofrequency ablation treatments. Exemplary techniques involve placing a conductive or semiconductive pad assembly near a target tissue, and administering electrical current through the target tissue while protecting adjacent tissue with the pad assembly. The pad assembly may include a material having an electrical conductivity value that is equal to or greater than the electrical conductivity value of the target tissue.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus, and systems for occluding a tissue opening are provided. One embodiment includes a catheter having an elongate body and a first lumen to direct hypertonic saline through an opening in the lumen to tissue of a fossa ovalis. The embodiment includes a radiofrequency (RF) electrode coupled to the elongate body proximal a distal end of the elongate body. The RF electrode can emit RF energy to the tissues of the passage and the hypertonic saline can facilitate a distribution of the RF energy along the tissue to fuse the tissue of the passage.
