Four-contact glove probe method for rapid recording of cardiac electrograms during surgery.
A technique is presented for recording four simultaneous electrograms from the heart during operation for cardiac arrhythmias. this technique permits intraoperative maps of cardiac electrical activity to be constructed more rapidly than is possible with single-point mapping, thereby decreasing the risks to the patient and yielding more information about cardiac events.
