Abstract:
A system includes a pulse waveform generator and an ablation device coupled to the pulse waveform generator. The ablation device includes at least one electrode configured for ablation pulse delivery to tissue during use. The pulse waveform generator is configured to deliver voltage pulses to the ablation device in the form of a pulsed waveform. A first level of a hierarchy of the pulsed waveform includes a first set of pulses, each pulse having a pulse time duration, with a first time interval separating successive pulses. A second level of the hierarchy of the pulsed waveform includes a plurality of first sets of pulses as a second set of pulses, a second time interval separating successive first sets of pulses, the second time interval being at least three times the duration of the first time interval.

Claim (Index 1):
A system, comprising:\n a pulse waveform generator configured to generate voltage pulses in the form of a pulsed waveform, the pulsed waveform including:\n (a) a first level of a hierarchy including a first set of pulses, each pulse of the first set of pulses having a pulse time duration and being a rectangular pulse, a first time delay separating successive pulses of the first set of pulses; \n (b) a second level of the hierarchy including a plurality of first sets of pulses as a second set of pulses, a second time delay separating successive first sets of pulses, the second time delay being at least three times the duration of the first time delay; and \n (c) a third level of the hierarchy including a plurality of second sets of pulses as a third set of pulses, a third time delay separating successive second sets of pulses, the third time delay being at least thirty times the duration of the second time delay; and \n an ablation device coupled to the pulse waveform generator, the ablation device configured to abate tissue in response to receiving the voltage pulses from the pulse waveform generator.
