Claims36
A system, comprising:
- a tool configured to apply a procedure to a first region in a vicinity of a lumen coupled to an organ of a subject, and to apply a follow on procedure to a second region in the vicinity of the lumen, the second region being located equidistant or closer to the organ than the first region;
- a sensor, coupled to the subject, configured to monitor one or more physiologic parameters from the subject;
- and
- a feedback system, coupled with the sensor, configured to convey an outcome of the procedure to an operator based upon changes in the physiologic parameter.

A method, comprising the steps of:
- applying a procedure to a first region in a vicinity of a lumen coupled to an organ in a subject;
- subsequently applying a follow on procedure to a second region in the vicinity of the lumen, the second region being equidistant or closer to the organ than the first region;
- monitoring a physiologic parameter from the subject;
- and
- determining an outcome of the procedure based upon the monitoring after the follow on procedure.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- applying a procedure to a second region in a vicinity of a lumen coupled to an organ in a subject, the second region being equidistant or closer to the organ than a first region in the vicinity of the lumen;
- monitoring a physiologic parameter from the subject;
- and
- determining the durability of a treatment of a neural structure in the first region based upon the monitoring after the procedure.
