Abstract

See full text

An apparatus comprises a catheter comprising a first electrode. The apparatus also comprises a second electrode electrically attached to a person and coupled to the first electrode via the person's tissue. Logic is coupled to the electrodes and generates an electrical signal that is provided through the electrodes and computes an impedance or conduction velocity associated with the electrodes based on the electrical signal. The logic stores a threshold against which said computed impedance or conduction velocity is compared by said logic.
