摘要: A catheter device and method for heating tissue, the device having a catheter shaft constructed for insertion into a patient's body, and at least one chamber mounted on the catheter shaft. The catheter shaft has at least one lumen for fluid flow through the shaft. The chambers are defined by walls that are at least in part expandable. Fluid flows, through the lumens, between the chambers and a fluid source outside the body. The chambers can be filled with the fluid after they have been placed within the body. A heating device heats liquid within at least one of the chambers, so that heat is transmitted from the liquid to surrounding tissue by thermal conduction through the wall of the chamber. Means are provided for selectively directing heat transmission toward a selected portion of surrounding tissue. The chambers are fillable with fluid separately from each other, so that the chambers can occupy any of a plurality of possible total volumes. By selecting the total volume of chambers, compression of the tissue can be controlled, and hence the effectiveness of transfer of heat to the tissue can be controlled. According to the method, the catheter device is used to heat tissue from within a duct in a patient's body. The chambers are inserted into the duct and filled with fluid. Liquid is heated within at least one of the chambers, and heat is selectively directed toward a selected portion of surrounding tissue.

摘要: A diagnostic impedance measuring system having an elongate tissue-penetrating probe member with a plurality of axially spaced reference electrodes disposed about a distal portion of the probe. The reference electrodes measure the impedance of the biological tissue adjacent each electrode. A first comparator element compares the measured impedance of at least a first and a second of the reference electrodes, and the comparator generates a first signal indicative of the impedance difference between the two electrodes. A second comparator element compares the measured impedance between either the first or second electrode and one additional electrode, and generates a second signal indicative of the impedance difference between the two electrodes. A third comparator element compares the first and second signals and generates a third signal indicative of the impedance difference between the two signals. The third signal communicates with a signal evaluation element that determines the relative position of the probe within a patient's body.

摘要: A system for detecting the position of a catheter in a patient includes three sets of reference electrodes, with one set disposed on each of the mutually orthogonal X, Y and Z axes. A signal processor measures the differential voltage indicative of impedance between a detection electrode disposed on the catheter and each electrode of each of the three sets of reference electrodes in order to determine the X coordinate, Y coordinate and Z coordinate of the catheter. The detected position of the catheter is recorded and the detection of subsequent catheter positions is performed relative to the recorded catheter position. The difference between subsequent catheter positions and the recorded position relative to the X, Y and Z axes is displayed in order to facilitate re-positioning of the catheter at the recorded position. Optional EKG and/or respiratory sensors may be used to synchronize the catheter position detection in order to reduce detection inaccuracies due to EKG and/or respiratory artifacts.

摘要: An electrosurgical probe is disclosed which provides the ability to both cut and cauterize tissue. The probe includes at least one cauterization electrode mounted upon a distal portion of the electrode and adapted to deliver electrosurgical energy to tissue. Further, a central lumen is disposed within the probe. The lumen is adapted to accommodate the flow of fluid from a remote source to tissue through an outlet port in the distal end of the probe. Also, the lumen houses a cutting electrode which is selectively deployable. Both cauterization and coagulation can be conducted in a bipolar mode. The flow of fluid through the lumen serves to limit the heat transfer from the cauterization electrode to adjacent tissue to an extent sufficient to prevent the sticking of tissue to the probe. A feedback system is also provided to optimize the electrode temperature.

摘要: A clip applicating device deploys surgical clips to ligate ducts and/or vessels during surgical procedures. While the clip is deployed the device simultaneously delivers electrosurgical energy to the affected tissue through the clip. This causes the clip and the adjacent tissue to be fused together, resulting in more secure surgical clips. The clipping device may be configured either as a bipolar or a monopolar instrument.

摘要: An electrosurgical instrument includes a roller electrode segmented into conductive and non-conductive portions. When the electrode is rolled over a treatment site, the region of the electrode that contacts the site receives current from an energy source and the non-contacting region of the electrode is isolated from the energy source. The electrode is well suited for use in an isotonic fluid environment, without resulting in significant current dissipation since the non-contacting portion is isolated from the energy source. The roller electrode has a substantially cylindrical shape and is rotatable about a longitudinal axis along which a bore extends. A conductor carrying current from the energy source is disposed through the bore such that, when the electrode is urged against a treatment site, the conductor delivers current to the contacting region of the roller electrode and is isolated from the non-contacting region. Various designs of the segmented roller electrode, as well as both monopolar and bipolar embodiments, are described.
