摘要:
An ablation device for denervation including a catheter delivery mechanism including an elongated tube with a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end being emplaceable within a body lumen at a target nerve region. A guide wire, at least one radiofrequency electrode, a plurality of positioning elements, and a plurality of pressing elements initially located within the tube. The electrode being deployable from the tube at the target nerve region and forming a ring-shaped structure adjacent the distal tube end. The positioning elements being deployable from the tube at the target nerve region from a position of the tube further distal than the electrode. The pressing elements being deployable from the tube more proximal than the electrode for use in pressing the deployed electrode against tissue to be ablated.
