High Resolution Electro-Anatomic Mapping Using Multiple Biopotential Sensors And Associated Signal Processing And Digitization In The Catheter Tip
Patent Number: US 2015/0313501 Al
Date Filed: November 5, 2015
Country Filed In: USA
Product Application: MOSFET Catheter

Description:

An apparatus for sensing an electrophysiological biopotential signal in combination with an external control circuit includes a catheter having a tip portion, an analog front-end sensor array in the tip portion of the catheter communicated with at least a first electrode in the tip portion of the catheter, and an analog signal processing integrated circuit in the tip portion of the catheter communicated with the analog front-end sensor array.
Field of Use: The MOSFET Catheter was designed to be used in conjunction with the Catheter Guidance Control and Imaging (CGCI) system to provide physicians the ability to guide a catheter through a patient's body using a robotically controlled magnetic guidance system. The catheter greatly improved upon eliminating the issues regarding signal to noise ratio making the MOSFET Catheter much better at being able to generate high-fidelity mapping and imaging. Initial applications for the technology were for the field of Electrophysiology and specifically for the ablation of the heart to treat patients with AFib.
