    摘要: A method and system for cryotreatment and mapping of target tissue. The cryotreatment system may include a cryotreatment catheter, a mapping catheter including one or more mapping electrodes, and one or more temperature sensors located on the mapping catheter and/or the cryotreatment catheter. The cryotreatment catheter distal tip may be short enough to allow at least one mapping electrode to be positioned proximate the cryoballoon, for example, within 6 mm or less from the cryoballoon. Energy, such as radiofrequency energy, may be delivered to one or more mapping electrodes when one or more temperature sensors indicate a temperature of approximately 0° C. or below at one or more mapping electrode in order to thaw or prevent the formation of ice on the mapping electrodes when positioned proximate a cryoballoon during a cryotreatment procedure in order to recapture cardiac signals.

    摘要: A radiofrequency ablation catheter includes an electrode ablation head (10), a Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) thermistor (20), and an inner conductor (30), where the electrode ablation head (10) is disposed at an end portion of the inner conductor (30), the PTC thermistor is disposed between the electrode ablation head (10) and the inner conductor (30), and the inner conductor (30) is connected to a cable plug component (40). The radiofrequency ablation catheter and a therapy device including the radiofrequency ablation catheter can precisely control the ablation temperature by means of PTC, such that upon coagulation of tissues, the ablation catheter is not adhered to the tissues, thus avoiding the risk of complications such as rebleeding.
