ABSTRACT:
An interface for performing a diagnostic or therapeutic procedure on heart tissue with an electrode structure includes a controller which operates to establish an operating condition for the electrode structure, a processing unit coupled to the controller, a memory storage device including process software adapted to be executed by the processing unit and a graphical user interface including a display screen coupled to the processing unit. The process software performs a first control application and a second control application, each control application prescribing procedures for carrying out a given task using the electrode structure, at least one of the control applications prescribing a clinical procedure affecting heart tissue. The process software further performs a first function to create on the display screen separate first and second display regions, a second function to show in the first display region a selection menu display comprising a first field for selecting the first control application for execution and a second field for selecting the second control application for execution, and a third function to show in the second display region a first graphical display during execution of the first control application and a second graphical display during execution of the second control application.
