Abstract
Methods and devices are disclosed for delivering a therapy device during a cardiology procedure. The method includes a step of advancing a radiofrequency guidewire into a right atrium of the heart of a patient. A sheath and dilator are advanced over the radiofrequency guidewire. The distal tip of the radiofrequency guidewire is then positioned on the septum. The septum is then punctured by energizing the radiofrequency guidewire and advancing it through the septum. The dilator is then advanced across the septum, overtop the guidewire, dilating the septum. The radiofrequency guidewire and dilator are withdrawn, and an end therapy device is inserted.
