US Classification:
607130, 607129, 600375
Abstract:
The present application discloses a tissue marker that may be permanently applied to cardiac (or other) tissue by means such as, but not limited to, a minimally-invasive procedure to allow for pre- and post-op lesion site testing, with the marker also preferably being radiopaque to facilitate post-op imaging. More specifically, the marker may preferably comprise or include an electrode as part of an integrated assembly. The marker may be mounted on the tissue with a suitable tissue retention member for securing the marker in place. The disclosed examples include one or more tissue retention members, and in an exemplary embodiment comprises a pair of clips for securing the assembly to a target tissue. Each retention member or clip has a conductive lead with an electrically conductive surface in the form of a patch associated therewith. Each clip is preferably associated with a discrete electrically conductive area on the surface of the patch so that the assembly may function as a bi-polar electrode, with a voltage applied between the discrete conductive areas.
