Thermal injury of subendocardial tissue leads to a release of electrolytes and free radicals from the intracellular site creating a change in electrochemical potential (eP) between the distal and the proximal catheter tip electrodes. The aim of the study was to verify the detection of ablation-induced release of electrolytes and free radicals and to assess the suitability of control-line energy delivery at ablation by measuring eP.
