METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CARDIAC TISSUE MONITORING AND CATHETER-BASED PERFUSION FOR MITIGATING ACUTE REOXYGENATION INJURY

摘要

A system and methods are described for improving the management of ischemic cardiac tissue during acute coronary syndromes or other ischemic conditions. A method and apparatus is described that allows mitigation of oxygcn-relatcd injury by precisely modulating the level of oxygen rc-cxposurc during rcoxygcnation by a controlled feedback loop based on parameters of the tissue measured by a real-time tissue sensor or probe.
