摘要：
System and method for ablating tissue of a heart of a patient. The tissue is characterized, then a predetermined ablation procedure is selected based on the characterization, ablation energy is delivered according to procedure with the ablation device, and a temperature of the tissue and an impedance of the tissue are determined. Delivery of ablation energy is ceased at a time based, at least in part, on when at least one of an accumulated effective temperature of the tissue over time exceeds a thermal dose threshold and an accumulated effective energy of the tissue over time exceeds an effective energy threshold. Else, the ablation energy delivered is modified by adjusting the energy level based, at least in part, on at least one of the temperature being outside of a predetermined temperature range and the impedance being outside of an impedance range.
