Catheter For Cardiac And Renal Nerve Sensing And Mediation
Patent Number: US 12,279,876 B2
Date Filed: April 22, 2025
Country Filed In: USA
Product Application: Huygens™ Catheter
Description:
A catheter is provided which exhibits higher resolution at its distal end. The higher resolution can be accomplished by combining and amplifying signals received at electrodes locally. These combined and ampliï¬ed signals can then be digitized locally and transmitted for further processing. Optical communication channels may be used.
Field of Use: The Huygens™ Catheter represents a major advancement in creating a next-generation endocardial-mapping catheter for the electrophysiology arena. Based on the earlier discoveries made with the MOSFET™ Catheter, the Huygens£ Catheter employs the same basic concept of moving all the bioelectric signal measurement, amplification, filtering and data-processing onto a flexible micro-circuit board at the distal end of the catheter in order to mitigate the noise pollution issues associated with current mapping catheter systems. The Huygens™ Catheter provide a wholly new approach to catheter electrode placement and fidelity that allows for the ability to accurately measure extremely small millivolt signals which helps in increasing signal capture and resolution by 200x. Huygens™ also provides real analog to digital signal conversion at the sensor tip to eliminate signal degradation as information is sent to the external mapping station.
