Abstract
An electroporation ablation system for treating targeted tissue in a patient. The electroporation ablation system including an ablation catheter and an electroporation generator. The ablation catheter including a handle, a shaft having a distal end, and catheter electrodes situated at the distal end of the shaft and spatially arranged to generate electric fields in the targeted tissue in response to electrical pulses. The electroporation generator operatively coupled to the catheter electrodes and configured to deliver the electrical pulses in an irreversible electroporation pulse sequence that includes a preconditioning pulse sequence and an electroporation pulse sequence to one or more catheter electrodes. Wherein the preconditioning pulse sequence includes preconditioning electrical pulses configured to cause electrolysis near the targeted tissue and tetanizing skeletal muscle stimulation in the patient.
