Power supply device for ablation using irreversible electroporation
The patent application (Publication Number: US20240016536A1) describes a power supply device for use in ablation procedures utilizing irreversible electroporation. The device includes a power source unit that supplies power to multiple electrodes in an ablation catheter and a control unit that regulates pulse voltages applied to these electrodes during the ablation process. Specifically, the control unit ensures that pulse voltages with various positive amplitude values are applied to three or more application electrodes, maintaining specific thresholds for amplitude value differences and electric field intensity between adjacent electrodes.
Furthermore, the patent application also covers an ablation system incorporating the described power supply device and an ablation catheter with multiple electrodes. The system is designed for treating arrhythmias by performing ablation on affected areas within a patient's body using irreversible electroporation. The power supply device within the system controls the pulse voltages applied to the electrodes, ensuring the appropriate distribution of power for effective ablation while maintaining specific thresholds for amplitude value differences and electric field intensity. This innovation aims to enhance the precision and efficacy of ablation procedures, particularly in the treatment of arrhythmias.
