Abstract
A system for controlled sympathectomy procedures is disclosed. A system for controlled micro ablation procedures is disclosed. Methods for performing a controlled surgical procedure are disclosed. A system for performing controlled surgical procedures in a minimally invasive manner is disclosed. Systems and methods for accessing target tissues as part of a neuromodulation procedure from within a lumen are disclosed.
Claims20
A tool comprising:
- an elongate member comprising a distal tip and a control end, the elongate member configured to extend from an entry site on a body into a lumen within the body;
- one or more stabilizing members coupled to the elongate member, the one or more stabilizing members being configured to deploy from the distal tip of the elongate member and to retain a position of the distal tip within a lumen;
- and
- one or more probes coupled with at least one of the distal tip of the elongate member and at least one of the one or more stabilizing members, the one or more probes being configured for deployment responsive to actuation at the control end;
- wherein a given one of the probes comprises a probe tip configured to penetrate at least one of into and through the wall of the lumen upon deployment of the given probe;
- and
- wherein the given probe comprises one or more electrodes configured to at least one of monitor and alter electrophysiological activity in the vicinity of the lumen.
4 more elements
A system comprising:
- a tool comprising an elongate member, one or more stabilizing elements coupled to the elongate member, and one or more probes coupled to at least one of a distal tip of the elongate member and at least one of the one or more stabilizing members, the one or more probes being configured for deployment responsive to actuation at a control end of the elongate member, a given one of the probes comprising a probe tip configured to penetrate at least one of into and through a wall of the lumen upon deployment of the given probe, the given probe comprising one or more electrodes;
- and
- a control unit configured to exchange signaling with the control end of the elongate member to direct the one or more electrodes of the given probe to at least one of monitor and alter electrophysiological activity in the vicinity of the lumen.
