Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2015010116A2] Devices and methods are described for treating maladies such as atrial fibrillation. The devices and methods, in some implementations, include implant comprising a ribbon or other structure formed into a desired helical or other shape. The ribbon can provide mechanical pressure against an adjacent tissue, e.g., the tissue of a vessel, so as to help at least partially inhibit the propagation of electrical signals along the vessel.
