    摘要: A method and apparatus for limiting the application of ablation energy to viable myocardial tissue. An ablation energy generator produces a test signal that is applied to the heart muscle. The response of the heart muscle to the test signal is determined and used to analyze the viability of the heart tissue. If the heart muscle is viable, a higher powered ablation pulse may be delivered. If the tissue is not viable, no ablation energy is delivered. In one embodiment of the invention, the test signal is a low voltage, high frequency signal and the impedance of the tissue in response to the test signal is detected to determine tissue viability.

    摘要: Method and apparatus to modify a fluid by passing a compound through a selectively permeable membrane is provided. In one embodiment a fluid moving through a vessel is modified prior to its ejection from the vessel. This may be accomplished by urging the fluid into a mixing chamber wherein the mixing chamber is in fluid communication with an exit orifice and a passageway. This passageway may be in communication with a second chamber through a selectively permeable membrane. The fluid may then be altered by passing a compound between the mixing chamber and the second chamber through the passageway and the selectively permeable membrane. A device for modifying a fluid moving through a vessel may contain a first lumen, a second lumen, an exit orifice, and a mixing chamber in communication with the first lumen and the exit orifice.

    摘要: The invention provides for treating deleterious body tissue located within healthy body tissue by isolating the deleterious tissue from blood, air, and fluid communication. The device includes two structures, each having a corresponding circumferential surface arranged to circumscribe the deleterious body tissue. When the first and second circumferential surfaces are brought together in an aligned relationship with the deleterious body tissue between the structures, the two circumferential surfaces co-act to isolate the deleterious body tissue from communication with the healthy body tissue. The deleterious tissue is resected according to the invention by allowing it to become ischemic and necrotic, or by excision.
