System and method for controlling delivery of ablation energy to tissue

A method for controlling delivery of energy to a first and second electrode, comprising:

• delivering a first amount of energy to the first electrode and a second amount of energy to the second electrode;
• receiving, with a processor, a first measurement signal indicative of a first characteristic associated with delivery of the first amount of energy to the first electrode and a second measurement signal indicative of a second characteristic associated with delivery of the second amount of energy to the second electrode;
• and
• varying at least one of the first amount of energy based on the first measurement signal and the second amount of energy based on the second measurement signal.

A system for controlling delivery of energy to an electrode, the system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a non-transitory computer readable medium coupled with the processor, the non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions executable by the processor to:
• cause a generator to deliver an amount of energy to an electrode disposed on a catheter;
• receive a measurement signal from the electrode;
• generate a control signal based on the measurement signal meeting a determined condition relative to a threshold value;
• and
• send the control signal to the generator, the control signal being configured to cause the generator to vary the amount of energy.

A medical device, comprising:

• an elongated body, the elongated body including a proximal portion and a distal portion;
• a first electrode and a second electrode disposed along the distal portion of the elongated body;
• the medical device being configured to:
• deliver a first amount of energy to the first electrode and a second amount of energy to the second electrode;
• generate a first and second measurement signal from the first and second electrode, respectively;
• vary at least one of the first amount of energy based on the first measurement signal and the second amount of energy based on the second measurement signal.
