ABSTRACT:
A monophasic action potential contact electrode catheter and method of producing same are provided. The catheter includes a compartmentalized tip portion that includes a distal tip electrode that was set in place within a distal tip compartment, as well as a lateral surface electrode that was set in place within a proximal compartment. The distal tip compartment and the proximal compartment are electrically insulated from each other, and the tip electrode has a surface at the distal end of the catheter that is suitable for contacting the tissue wall of locations at which monophasic action potential readings are to be taken.
