    Abstract: An apparatus (22) for mapping the wall of a chamber of the heart. The apparatus (22) includes a flexible elongate tubular member (23) having proximal and distal extremities (27, 28) and at least one lumen (31) extending therethrough. A plurality of longitudinally and radially spaced-apart electrodes (42, 43) are provided. An expandable device (32) is carried by the distal extremity (28) of the flexible elongate tubular member (23) and is movable between a contracted position and an expanded position. The electrodes (42, 43) are mounted on the expandable device (32) so that when the expandable device (32) is moved to its expanded position in the chamber of the heart the electrodes (42, 43) are moved into engagement with the wall forming the chamber of the heart. Leads (53, 54) for conducting electrical energy are in contact with the electrodes (42, 43) and extend into the flexible elongate tubular member (23). An electrical apparatus is connected to the leads (53, 54) for performing electrical functions with respect to the electrodes (42, 43) and includes at least one semiconductor device (111) carried by the distal extremity (28) of the flexible elongate tubular member (23) in close proximity to the expandable device (32).

    Abstract: An endocardial mapping and ablation system (11) includes a catheter probe (12) comprised of a plurality of flexible longitudinally extending circumferentially spaced apart arms (23). Electrodes (21) are carried by the arms and are adapted to be moved into engagement with the wall of the heart. Markers (66) visibly ultrasonically are carried by the arms for encoding the arms from another. An ablation catheter (13) is carried by and is slidably mounted in probe (12) and has a distal extremity movable into the heart while the probe is disposed therein. An ablation electrode (86) and ultrasonic viewing means (41) are carried by the distal extremity of the ablation catheter. The distal extremity of the ablation catheter is movable into positions to view ultrasonically the markers carried by the arms of the catheter probe so that the arms can be identified and the spacing of the arms can be ascertained.

    Abstract: This invention is an assembly (11) for use in performing a medical procedure within a region in a body of a patient (17) having a vessel (18) therein comprising a multi-port introducer (12) adapted to be inserted into a vessel of the patient. The multi-port introducer includes an elongate body (21) having proximal (22) and distal (23) extremities and has spaced apart lumens (28) extending from the proximal extremity toward the distal extremity. The elongate tubular body has ports (26) therein at the proximal extremity in communication with the lumens and openings (29) in the distal extremity in communication with the lumens. The elongate tubular body has a length so that it can extend from the exterior of the body to said region in the body. A plurality of catheters (13) are provided. Each of the catheters is slidably disposed in a separate lumen in the multi-port introducer and has a distal extremity (38) adapted to be disposed in the vessel of the patient.
