摘要:
A system for treating an affected portion in a heart comprises a catheter havinga first end and a second end; a mono-polar or bi-polar electrode coupled to thefirst end, wherein the electrode is adapted to be inserted into heart tissue;a power source coupled to the second end and configured to energize the electrode,wherein the electrode emits a radio frequency (RP) signal upon being energizedto heat the affected portion to a desired temperature; a temperature feedbackcontrol coupled to the electrode and the power source, wherein electrode is configuredto alter the emitted RF signal based on a measured temperature of the affectedportion. A rotatable member is configured to allow a first portion of the catheterto freely rotate with respect to a second portion of the catheter.
