Abstract: At least some embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to an electroporation ablation system for treating targeted tissue in a patient. The electroporation ablation system comprises an ablation catheter including catheter electrodes configured to generate electric fields in the targeted tissue in response to a plurality of electrical pulse sequences delivered in a plurality of therapy sections; a controller configured to receive a first pulse voltage of a first electrical pulse sequence measured during a first therapy section of the plurality of therapy sections; and determine a charge voltage based on the first pulse voltage; and an electroporation generator. The electroporation generator is operatively coupled to the catheter electrodes and the controller and configured to deliver a second electrical pulse sequence at a controlled pulse voltage for a second therapy section of the plurality of therapy sections.

Abstract: Ablation probes and methods of their use. Example probes include probe circuits configured to provide identifying information for the probe itself. The probe circuits may sense probe usage and/or age to determine probe end of life (EOL). In response to EOL, the probe circuit generates an output indicating EOL. The probe electronic circuit may also be configured to monitor probe usage via impedance or other features, independent of such operation by an ablation pulse generator.

Abstract: A system for ablation is described herein including an inner electrode assembly with an inner elongate shaft and a distal electrode, an outer electrode assembly having an outer elongate shaft and a proximal electrode, wherein the outer electrode assembly defines a central passage configured to slidably receive the inner electrode assembly, wherein the distal electrode or the proximal electrode is axially moveable with respect to the other, and an energy source configured to be electrically connected to the distal electrode and the proximal electrode and configured to deliver a pulsed electric field (PEF). One of the distal electrode and proximal electrode is part of a first expandable electrode array comprising two or more electrode elements moveable between an unexpanded position and an expanded position.

Abstract: Methods and devices for performing ablation using time multiplexed waveforms are disclosed. The increased efficacy of monophasic waveforms is combined with the reduced side effects of biphasic waveforms by distributing components of the waveform across over a broader time interval than that typically used in a conventional biphasic waveform. Charge balancing occurs upon completion of therapy delivery within a time period that avoids muscle stimulation, while allowing unbalanced waveforms to be delivered during stimulation.

Abstract: One general aspect includes a system for ablation including a catheter including a sheath defining a sheath lumen and a distal end, and an elongate electrode assembly axially moveable within the sheath lumen. The electrode assembly includes a shaft defining a central channel and a distal central channel opening. The electrode assembly also includes an expandable electrode array including two or more electrode elements positioned at the distal portion of the electrode assembly, where the electrode array is moveable between a retracted position contained within the sheath lumen and an expanded position protruding from the sheath.

Abstract: Electrosurgical generators having improved functionality and user interface. In an example, the user may modify therapy output parameters without interrupting therapy delivery within a therapy regimen. In an example, the display shows both therapy amplitudes and encountered impedances for a plurality of therapy pulses in different portions of a display. In an example, the electrosurgical generator is operable in a triggered mode using a cardiac signal trigger and provides the operator with an estimate of remaining time that is calculated in light of a calculated cardiac rate.
